Project work has been positively booming in recent years. Karlstad Business School now has global classrooms where students have influence over their education.
In 2021, project management is no longer associated exclusively with IT projects where engineers are at the helm. A lot of work is done in project form on a regional, national, and municipal level and the private sector is hungry for well-prepared students.
Regardless of Karlstads size there is quite a lot of things going on if you know how to find it.
At the Visit Karlstad webpage there is information about most things happening in and around the city from events to sightseeing, concerts, etc.Take a look for inspiration!We would also like to mention a facility called Fritidsbanken, which is located at Fagottgatan 4 close to the University. Imagine being able to rent sport equipment for free! Well, the future is here.
Media and Communication Studies in Karlstad arranges several different types of seminars, the most common of which are research seminars, journalism seminars, and Geomedia speaker series.
Our research seminars feature visits from external guests as well as presentations of in-house research that is conducted in the subject.
The Ander Journalism Seminar is a collaboration with the Anne-Marie and Gustaf Ander foundation for media research and is usually arranged once

The pandemic threw intensive care personnel into innumerable challenges and upheavals. A new study looks at the managers’ role and experiences during this period. The researchers behind the study conclude that the dramatic transition of intensive care came at a high organisational and personal cost, and that there are lessons to be learned.
Intensive care around the world was at the focal point during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Service innovation is an area that many firms, organizations and society are struggling with. Service as a phenomenon is what most of us is occupied with; both as employees and how we spend our money. I have spent a lot of time trying to make sense of what it really is.
The first thing that is striking with service innovations is that some are easy to copy while others are difficult to copy and latter types work well as differentiators for firms.
