The NORDTEK Board of Directors has launched two Task Forces to increase the collaboration and exchange of experiences between the members.
The focus on two different areas will give structure to the work, enable the network to define goals for its activities, to be more well defined in its communication and point out in what directions to look in order to attract external funding. The Task Forces are:
- Engineering education – content and pedagogy
- Mobility
Engineering education – content and pedagogy
In a time when technology and society are evolving with an increasing pace, engineers educated today need to be prepared for the technology, society and challenges of tomorrow. This rapid development not only has to be mirrored in what we teach, but also in how and when we teach.
Mobility
Together the NORDTEK universities provide word class research and education in many fields. Providing our students access to the NORDTEK network gives them the opportunity to study or teach specialized topics in an excellent environment whereas the universities get highly motivated students and an influx of ideas from external teachers. In addition, mobility of students (including PhDs), teachers and staff will increase our cultural understanding and bring the Nordic Baltic countries closer.
