Initiative Seminar: Future World-Class Information & Communication Engineers

Plats: Konferenscentrum Wallenberg, Medicinaregatan 20A

Ort: GOTHENBURG

Society and technology - a rapidly changing partnership that is profoundly influencing the development of the ICT industry. Chalmers' engineering education must evolve to reflect these changes; but what are the new requirements and how should they be met? And how can these changes make ICT education more attractive? In this seminar, industrial leaders, leading scientists, and students will discuss the challenges and opportunities for ICT at Chalmers.

Some  highlights from the program:
Ingrid Nordmark, vice president Ericsson AB, responsible for the creation of the next generation of mobile communications technology, 4G LTE (Long Term Evolution) will describe the opportunities and needs for future engineers from an industry perspective.

Andy Hopper, University of Cambridge, Chairman of RealVNC and Ubisense, and co-founder of numerous ICT spin-outs and start-ups, shows the visions and challenges in the area of entrepreneurship and innovation. 

Jan Bosch, Chalmers, until recently VP Engineering Process and VP Open Innovation for Intuit in Mountain View, will discuss the software requirements from a Silicon Valley perspective.
