One such example is the ambition to create complete academic environments (see more on this in a previous post <a href=\"https:\/\/blogg.mah.se\/ts\/2018\/11\/07\/an-important-step\/\">here<\/a>). Another example is to work strategically with the target groups of our academic environment. As the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.riksdagen.se\/sv\/dokument-lagar\/dokument\/svensk-forfattningssamling\/hogskolelag-19921434_sfs-1992-1434\">University Law<\/a> in Sweden prescribes, we as a university have two main\u00a0 tasks, i.e., (1.) education, and (2.) research. Thus, I think that it is fair to say the students is our main target group. Actually, and if I may elaborate a bit, future students, as well as, existing students form our main focal group of attention. It is especially the work on attracting future students at TS that I want to highlight in this post.<\/p>\n<p>For the first time in the history of TS, Teknikdagen &#8212; a seminar day for our future university faculty students &#8212; was arranged yesterday here in the Niagara building. Teknikdagen included\u00a0high school students (gymnasielever), as well as, their teachers from education programs in technology and natural sciences from all across Sk\u00e5ne. Teknikdagen offered inspiring talks from former TS students, as well as, live examples from our degree programs presented by our existing students, and seminars given by members of the staff here at TS. Also, two students, <em>Nilo<\/em> from the byggingenj\u00f6rs-program and <em>Sara<\/em> from the app dev program, served as excellent hosts. In my humble opinion, this first version of Teknikdagen was a great success, and something we need to build on for the second version of it, which I sincerely hope will take place next fall.<\/p>\n<p>Having said all this, I would like to particularly thank the following persons for their dedicated work on arranging the first Teknikdagen:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Daniel Harju, Communications Officer, TS and MAU<\/p>\n<p>Filippa T\u00f6rnwall,\u00a0Communications Officer, MAU<\/p>\n<p>Maria Crona,\u00a0Communications Officer, MAU<\/p>\n<p>Christian Andersson, Lecturer, MTM<\/p>\n<p>Carl Johan Gribel, Ass.
