The SII 2026 conference focused on system integration – how hardware, software, and various technical subsystems are combined into functional wholes. This is a central area within modern robotics, automation, industrial systems, and smart technologies, including applications in health, manufacturing, and energy.
– I participated in this year’s conference as Program Co‑Chair, says Jorge Solis, Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering.
Research and teaching environments were presented, along with good examples of teaching that promotes active learning and strengthens research‑based education.
– Between 9 and 13 February, we welcomed a delegation from the Department of Physics at the University of Bucharest, Romania, says Andrea Muntean, Senior Lecturer in Physics.

At the Swedish Society of Paper and Pulp Engineers' Ekmandagar on January 27, 2026, Elise Meurs, a doctoral student in chemical engineering at the Exact Industrial Research School, won the first prize in the prestigious presentation competition.
– The competition is conducted in Pecha Kucha format, a presentation format with 20 slides and only 20 seconds per slide, says Elise Meurs.
This format therefore places very high demands on both structure, timing and

Ana, what is the reason for your visit to Karlstad University and Geomedia?
– When FCT, the Portuguese research agency, presented an exceptional scheme with funds EC’s Recovery and Resilience Plan for mobility abroad, I immediately thought of Geomedia to finish working on the project’s book, and find a stimulating intellectual environment to develop my research further.
