Two new vice presidents at KTH
Published Feb 18, 2008
Eva Malmström Jonsson, Professor at the Department of Fibre and Polymer Technology, will become KTH’s Vice President for Student Recruitment, and Gustav Amberg, Dean of the School of Engineering Sciences will become Vice President for Faculty Development and Gender Equality.
Student recruitment is a vital issue for KTH, especially in the light of the decrease in application rates to the country’s engineering courses during the last few years.
Gustav Amberg’s task is to renew KTH faculty with a special emphasis on recruiting more women as teachers and researchers. These activities are linked to the Future Faculty Project that has been underway at KTH for several years.
