The time horizon is ten years, focusing on changes needed for KTH to remain an attractive education actor. As the vice president for education emphasizes in his blog, technical development goes faster and faster. Right now, we have significantly increased digitization, artificial intelligence and electrification, for instance. In the 1990s, the half-life of knowledge from an engineering education was considered around 30 years. Today it is estimated to be 3-5 years. At the beginning of January 2021, KTH&#8217;s Board of Education initiated an investigation focused on the Education of the Future. As a vital part of the work, Vice President Leif Kari communicates about everything that comes up along the way.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kth.se\/blogs\/vicerektorerna\/en\/2021\/10\/compass-set-to-the-future\/\">More about the future education in Kari&#8217;s blog post<\/a><\/p>\n<p>In addition, Leif Kari and several UN representatives will tell more about the work with the Education of the Future at the upcoming Stortr\u00e4ff on November 30.

At the same time, the long-term development towards increased digitization must be more sustainable and with developed support functions. At the ITM School, we have reached far. Since autumn 20 have had a group of assistants (the E-learning group), who support us teachers in applying our tools for digital examination (DE). Also, our exam coordinators have been involved and developed the administrative processes for DE. For spring 22, we will also invest in equipping each department with several hybrid teaching bags that contain a portable conference camera, a speaker puck and a tripod and hub. You can book a hybrid teaching bag via your SR or pick one at ITM&#8217;s expeditions and service centre.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, I hope that you have been informed about KTH&#8217;s program, &#8220;The future leader for strategic educational development&#8221;.
