Degree Projects

As a graduate student, you immerse yourself in a question at the same time as you get to know the organization. Several of those who have done degree projects with us become interested in the company and feel committed to the business. They also often come back after their education – as employees or on a doctoral position.

The degree project is carried out based on need and when good supervision is available. Here are some examples of specialization areas:

Processes and products:

  • Optimization/development of processes and methods
  • Improvement of existing products
  • Development of new products
  • Utilize residual products for new areas of use
  • Comparisons between analysis methods and/or analysis instruments

Energy and Environment:

  • Investigation into energy savings
  • Durability calculations and investigations
