About IVA

IVA (Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences) works to promote the technical and economic sciences and the development of industry for the benefit of society. Activities include education, business, societal development and climate change, where the Student Council actively contributes an important student and doctoral perspective.

The Student Council organises its own activities within the framework of IVA and runs projects dealing with climate issues, digitalisation and diversity, among other things. The members of the council come from universities all over Sweden, and act as a link between IVA and the universities.
