At the department of Chemical Engineering, Karlstad University, we have a strong research environment around forest products and processes. We are performing research of how pulp and paper should be manufactured and of how the paper should be coated and printed.
About 10 doctoral students are enrolled in our extensive postgraduate programme, half of them being employed directly by the industry.
Digitalisation and Key Enabling Techniques such as Artificial Intelligence, Big Data Analytics and Software Engineering have a tremendous potential to change industries.
The tourism industry has been characterised by digitalisation for quite a few years. At the same time, the challenge has been that development has primarily been technology-driven.
