5ANNUAL REPORT 2011
A successful jubilee year
Over the past year we have celebrated the fifty years of LTH in many different ways. This is part of our workto increase our visibility. Our media analyses show thatwe succeeded very well. Increased visibility helps us to demonstrate our profile. We produced a report of our activities over the past 50 years in the form of the jubilee book “50 years with LTH” (50 år med LTH).
When we celebrate a jubilee, it is not only us who are important, but also all those who have studied here, those who have worked here and those with whom we have worked and work. A highlight of the celebrations was our alumni party, which attracted 1 600 guests. It is encouraging and inspiring that our alumni think LTH is important. Another highlight was the party for friends of LTH, at which we received a donation from our closest friends in the business world for a jubilee chair in Industrial Economics. Of course money is important, but the most important thing is the commitment of the companies. If there are good ideas and someone who is passionate about them, the rest always falls into place.At LTH there are plenty of lecturers and researchers who are passionate about their ideas. The jubilee year was gilded with the appointment of five honorary doctors who reflect LTH’s broad field of activity. One of them has gone on to become Minister for the Environment, which made us especially proud.
Our School of Architecture was able to move into newly renovated premises with new opportunities to develop its activities.
At the start of the year, a new Higher Education Ordinance entered into force. This led to an intensive pe-riod of work on appointment rules, rules of procedure, governance, organisation, etc. Work is still ongoing and is being implemented into our day-to-day activities as different stages are completed.
There is a lot of discussion about ranking of higher education institutions. It is nice to read comments in the daily press such as: “The students at LTH in Lund have reason to be pleased. According to a new ranking (URANK) they study at the best university [in Sweden] in the Engineering/Science category”.
We are facing an increasing number of challenges. Decisions have already been taken on the research faci-lities ESS and Max IV, and during the year Ideon Medi-con Village was added to the list. AstraZeneca’s former premises are to be filled with research and enterprise in fields including life science and cancer research. As one person put it, “we are building a new CERN in Lund”. We are making investments today, the fruits of which we will reap in ten years’ time.
Things are going well for LTH: very high competition for places on our study programmes, plenty of research funding, conscientious students, good teaching staff and skilful researchers. Everything is held together by efficient administration. The downside is that we provi-de far more teaching than our mandate requires, termed ‘overproduction’. The accrued research grants and public agency capital also displease the University Board and Ministry of Education.
After many meetings at all levels of the organisation, we have put together a new strategic plan. It seems highly appropriate to start our next 50 years with an updated strategic plan! Our vision is based on that in the Lund University strategic plan and is as follows:
A cross-boundary faculty of engineering within a world-class university that understands, explains and improves our world and conditions for humanity.
Anders Axelsson, Dean of LTH
6 ANNUAL REPORT 2011
The situation for first- and second-cycle education at LTH can
be summarised in the following three points:
» high number of applicants per place on all programmes
» conscientious students
» a high rate of graduate employment
A perfect situation! However, it is almost too good, as we
even educate more students than we get paid for!
There are many reasons why first- and second-cycle educa-
tion at LTH is doing so well. Behind the good results are not
only good students, but also skillful lecturers and well-struc-
tured programmes. This is the result of long-term recruitment
work, many years of investment in educational development
and well-functioning course and programme administration.
There are many people involved in these various activities:
the communications department with its information offi-
cers, the academic development unit (Genombrottet) with
its teaching consultants and student services where staff in
different roles offer service to students. Not least, there are
the lecturers, who inspire and encourage the students they
meet to learn.
The number of students graduating from many of our study
programmes is increasing. This can be explained by a fall in
the number who withdraw from their studies, but also by the
fact that some students may have drawn out their studies
because of the recession or, on the engineering program-
mes, because they have chosen to extend their studies by a
semester by transferring to the five-year programme that was
introduced in autumn 2007. The first students who took the
new engineering programme from the start are expected to
graduate in spring 2012.
The statistics also show that the number of Bachelor’s de-
grees in Engineering is increasing, which is especially pleasing
because many studies report that there is a very high demand
for this qualification in industry.
In autumn 2011 the first 40 students were admitted to the
new programme in Biomedical Engineering. The programme
is popular, with many applicants, and there are a roughly
equal number of male and female students on the pro-
gramme.
In 2012 a slightly different structure will be launched in first-
and second-cycle education. A number of the programme
management structures and boards will be replaced and
there will be a new vice-dean for first- and second-cycle
education. I have enjoyed four exciting and productive years
and will now be moving my focus to other areas.

10 ANNUAL REPORT 2011
No-one was to miss the fact that LTH was celebrating its
50th anniversary. The students’ union, Teknologkåren, was
therefore brought in. This ‘hit’ Stefan Elfborg in particular,
who held the voluntary position of master of ceremonies and
was therefore responsible for party planning.
From November 2010 he was part of the group that planned
the jubilee. He has been highly praised for his efforts by the
management of LTH.
During the spring semester, he and Julia Mauritsson put
on around ten pub nights, “LTH-50 After Work”, featuring
‘stand-up scientists’. The initiative did not reach all students,
but around 20 people came each time and new contacts were
made between students and staff, Stefan points out.
“The alumni party for 1 600 guests and the house party for
700 employees and students in September were naturally our
two biggest commitments. I think we managed them well
and had good teamwork. My duties included checking all
the licences with the municipality and the fire authorities; fire
restrictions set the limits for the size of the party at Kårhuset.”
“Lisbeth Wester and Eva Nilsson, Communications and
Marketing, were responsible for the programme and graphic
designer Robin Poulsen toiled hard; he also provided the
music for the party with his band, Supersale, which was
highly appreciated. The lighting and catering were provided
by external suppliers. The Fire Protection Engineering
international degree projects society did a fantastic job as
bartenders and with everything else that needed doing. I
was in charge of contact with comedians, toast¬masters,
musicians and entertainers. The absolute best and most
successful event was the VIP party on 17 November.
“It has been a very interesting year; fun and educational and
has given me many new contacts and experiences”, says
Stefan Elfborg. He is especially pleased that he worked full-
time, if voluntarily, and studied full-time without missing more
than one course. He is now finishing the Civil Engineering
programme specialising in Building Physics with a degree
project on energy analysis.
Stefan Elfborg, student
11ANNUAL REPORT 2011
In 2011, application and tuition fees were introduced for the
first time for students from countries outside the EU/EEA and
Switzerland. As expected, the number of new students on our
internationally-oriented Master’s programmes fell, from 160
to 109, of whom 39 were fee-paying students. This was in
line with our expectations. The aim is to achieve 100 paying
students within a year or two. Over the coming years the
programmes will be refreshed to give them a clear profile
aimed at a global job market and the information on the
website will be improved. Those who invest in studies at LTH
should get their investment back many times over.
LTH has been involved in two policy-oriented EU projects
in 2011. The EVALUATE-E project concerned joint degrees
between the EU and the US. The project showed LTH that
joint degrees must be based on fully integrated study
programmes. During 2012 Virginia Tech and LTH will begin
discussing such programmes. The ADDE SALEM project was
about how joint degrees between the EU and Latin America
could strengthen the employability of engineers in their home
country. Ultimately, the project aims to strengthen economic
ties between the continents.
Exchange studies are an important part of internationalisation
at LTH. During 2011 LTH has combined the main application
rounds, ERASMUS and other bilateral agreements, to create
one single application period. This is a step in simplifying the
application process, both for students and for the administra-
tion. We hope that in 2012 we will be able to take further
steps in this direction and also incorporate the university-wide
exchanges, LUUP, into the application round.
The balance of exchange continues to improve. This is because
the number of outgoing students is increasing, at the same
time as LTH restricts the number of incoming students outside
existing agreements.
From 2011, engineering students at LTH can study one semes-
ter of their third year abroad. This year 12 students from Bio-
technology, Computer Science, Environmental Engineering,
Industrial Engineering & Management and Civil Engineering
studied at the universities of Waterloo and Connecticut.
Three students were the first to begin studying for a double
degree in Japan, two at Keio University and one at Kyushu
University.
New exchange agreements were signed with the University
of Sydney (Architecture) and Dongguk University, Seoul and
a double degree agreement was signed within the T.I.M.E.
network with the Vrije Universiteit Brussel.
LTH’s quantitative target is that 25 per cent of those who
graduate from the long professional programmes should
have spent at least three months abroad. This could be in the
form of an exchange, a work placement or a degree project
undertaken abroad. In 2011 the figure was just over 21 per
cent. For engineering students, the figure exceeded 20 per
cent for the first time.

Third-cycle educationEducation Quality 2011 (EQ11), which aimed to raise the
quality of all education at Lund University, showed that the
University should focus on reinforcing quality in third-cycle
education. This will be an important task of the new univer-
sity-wide education board.
A new national graduate school in Architecture to strengthen
Swedish architecture research has been awarded funding
from FORMAS. The graduate school is coordinated by LTH.
A new, expanded introduction course for doctoral students
at LTH has been developed and is now given in English every
semester. The course has been very well received.
This year, 2011, output of research degrees at LTH has in-
creased again after the drop that resulted from the sharp
decline in the number of students admitted to third-cycle
education in 2004 and 2005. The number of new doctoral
students has increased since then, which is largely due to
the fact that LTH has been successful in attracting external
research funding. The proportion of women is around 30 %
and corresponds approximately to the proportion of women
on LTH’s study programmes.
The doctoral student section of Teknologkåren (TLTH) has pro-
vided active and committed members to the research boards,
research committees and faculty board, with a strong focus
on improving education.

Catharina Sternudd, lecturer and researcherThis year’s introduction of tuition fees for non-European
students did not particularly affect the international Master’s
programme in Sustainable Urban Design.
“The drop was less than we feared. But we have also worked
hard to promote the programme around the world”, says
Catharina Sternudd, lecturer and researcher in Architecture
at LTH.
Another event that affected her and her colleagues was the
renovation of A-huset. On 24 September they celebrated the
inauguration of the newly renovated building.
“The teaching rooms have been improved a lot and the new,
glass-roofed courtyard is really a boost. We use it for gathe-
rings, exhibitions and even lectures. It also functions as a short
cut, so there are always people moving through it”, she says.
Not only teaching, but also research in architecture got
a lift this year. The research council Formas announced
SEK 80 million for Swedish architecture research, of which
SEK 30 million for a national graduate school coordinated
by LTH.
“That was great. Now we can admit new doctoral students
and develop the research at the department. It has been dif-
ficult to obtain grants for architecture research for many years,
so this is a very welcome investment!”
16 ANNUAL REPORT 2011
Research at LTH continues to develop in a very positive
manner. LTH benefits greatly from being an important part of
Lund University’s strong research environments, where multi-
disciplinary and interdisciplinary cooperation is developing
strongly.
The past year has seen a considerable increase in resources
for the strategic research areas; research groups from LTH
participate in 11 of the 12 areas awarded to Lund University.
The areas of greatest involvement for LTH are nanoscience and
nanotechnology; IT and mobile communication; e-science; and
manufacturing engineering. Coordinators, boards, academic
reference groups, consumer groups, communications officers
and administrators have been appointed and are operational.
The major investments in research infrastructure in Lund in
the form of MAX IV, ESS and Ideon Medicon Village will be
of great importance to LTH, while they will also require long-
term investments in research linked to these areas.
The principles for the financing of research infrastructure in
Sweden have been changed so that greater responsibility for
local infrastructure has been given to the universities, while
the national research infrastructure is financed at national
level by the Swedish Research Council (through the Council
for Research Infrastructures, RFI). In line with this, Lund
University has set aside funds for which the faculties can
apply, and LTH has received support for a number of faculty-
wide investments. The Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation
(KAW), which has previously funded a significant proportion
of LTH’s infrastructure, will also be focusing on infrastructure
of national importance in the future.
At the same time, KAW has introduced a new excellence
programme with grants for research projects with high
scientific potential, where the universities are expected to
take major responsibility for prioritising and co-financing. LTH
made several applications in the first round, of which two in
physics were successful. In 2011 a new programme was also
announced for young researchers, the Wallenberg Academy
Fellows, which has already attracted a lot of interest.
Over the past year, LTH has received a number of major research
grants from the research councils, including several grants
for young researchers from the Swedish Research Council.
Researchers in the fields of computer science and electrical
engineering had great success in the Swedish Foundation for
Strategic Research (SSF) framework programme in electronics
and photonics systems. One researcher who has previously
received funding within the SSF Future Research Leaders
programme has also been awarded the title of Successful
Research Leader this year.

EU researchLTH’s researchers continue to be highly active in the EU’s
Seventh Framework Programme, which started in 2007. In
total, LTH researchers are involved in 62 of the University’s 192
projects, which corresponds to 32%. In total, these projects
are expected to bring in approximately EUR 28.6 million to
LTH in EU grants.
Our participation is spread across most of the research fields
in the Framework Programme, but it is strongest in Infor-
mation and Communication Technologies (ICT), followed by
Energy; Health; Nanosciences, Nanotechnologies, Materials &
New Production Technologies (NMP); and Food, Agriculture &
Fisheries, and Biotechnology (Food/KBBE). Three collaborative
projects involving several European institutions are coordina-
ted by researchers at LTH.
Four researchers at LTH have been awarded individual five-
year research grants from the European Research Council
(ERC). These grants have been won against very stiff
international competition. Three senior researchers, Professor
Anne L’Huillier, Atomic Physics, Professor Bengt Sundén, Heat
Transfer and Professor Marcus Aldén, Combustion Physics,
have been awarded ERC advanced grants and Professor
Fredrik Kahl, Mathematics, has been awarded an ERC starting
grant.
LTH’s researchers are also active in other EU-funded projects,
for example the energy research programme Intelligent Energy
Europe, the Public Health programme and Structural Funds
projects.

StaffIn total, the proportion of female professors and senior
lecturers has not increased. The important junior staff
categories such as research fellow/associate senior lecturer,
however, show an increase in the proportion of women, which
provides an opportunity to increase the total proportion of
female teaching staff at LTH. However, the proportion of
female doctoral students fell in 2011, even though there are
now more female doctoral students in total than in 2006.
Between 2006, 2009 and 2011 the proportion of women in
the above employment categories has changed somewhat.
However, the trend is rather unclear. The proportion of female
professors and senior lecturers has not increased since 2009.
For 2011, associate senior lecturers have been included in the
research fellows category (there were 10 women and 32 men
in the category excluding associate senior lecturers). In this
category we can see a slight increase since 2009.
The proportion of women in the researchers category
has increased the most. This group of employees almost
exclusively comprises recent PhD graduates on fixed-term
employment contracts. The proportion of women in the
lecturers category has increased somewhat since 2011.
Among doctoral students, however, the proportion of women
has fallen somewhat, even though the total proportion of
doctoral students on studentships has been increasing steadily
since 2006.

The professional development courses for lecturers in higher
education teaching and learning forms the core of the
academic development unit Genombrottet’s activities. In
2011, 280 LTH employees (155 lecturers and 125 doctoral
students) undertook a total of 600 weeks of qualifying
training. In addition, Genombrottet has given 60 weeks
of training in higher education teaching and learning for
participants from other sections of Lund University. As part
of all courses, project reports are submitted on various higher
education teaching and learning issues related to teaching at
LTH. A number of the projects have been presented externally
in different contexts. Genombrottet has also carried out
international professional development commissions.
Over the past year, Genombrottet has received a great deal
of attention both nationally and internationally through a
number of international visits to LTH.
At Lund University, Genombrottet’s activities have inspired
the Faculty of Social Sciences to implement its own Teaching
Academy.
Genombrottet also co-hosted this year’s Swednet (Swedish
Network for Educational Development in Higher Education)
conference on 4–6 May with CED and MedCUL.
In 2011 the LTH board approved a new third-cycle subject:
Engineering Education. This makes it possible for doctoral
students to study in the field of higher education teaching
and learning at LTH.

21ANNUAL REPORT 2011
For Ulf Ellervik, every year is a year of chemistry. However,
as the United Nations decreed that 2011 should be the
International Year of Chemistry for everyone, there has been
an extreme amount of it this year, even for Ulf Ellervik. As
a Professor of Organic Chemistry and strong advocate of
popular science communication, he has led the University’s
activities to mark the occasion.
At the start of the year, Ulf Ellervik and his colleagues
arranged an art exhibition of chemistry images. In the spring,
he organised a panel discussion between researchers and
fashion bloggers on the chemistry of fashion. Towards the
end of the year, the University Building was transformed into
a market hall of food, food researchers, research-intensive
food industry and curious members of the public.
“There have been a lot of fantastic encounters. Many of us
have made many new contacts. Talking about clothes from
the perspective of chemistry and fashion, for example, was
extremely good fun”, he concludes.
As if that wasn’t enough, he has also published a popular
science book, “Evil Chemistry” (Ond kemi), which was
awarded the Royal Academy of Sciences’ newly established
Pi Prize for Swedish popular science literature.

22 ANNUAL REPORT 2011
LTH mostly appears in the media in connection with research.
It is also common that researchers appear in the capacity
of experts. Education generally generates less news, but the
high position of LTH’s programmes and courses in rankings is
sometimes mentioned. The University generally receives little
negative publicity – most is in the local press, which has a
clearer scrutinising role with regard to ‘its’ higher education
institution.
In the strongest national news media, including certain
prioritised industry publications, LTH featured in 176 articles/
features in 2011. A search for “Lunds Tekniska Högskola” in
the media archive generates almost 2 000 hits for the same
period. Over 40 press releases were sent out in the course
of the year.
Research that attracted a lot of attention during 2011
included: new technology to diagnose HIV, how air can reduce
fuel consumption, measurement equipment that could lead to
fewer power cuts, a new method of identifying relapse risk
for breast cancer, a solar panel that heats water, artichokes
becoming plastic in a new biorefinery, more environmentally
friendly textile dyeing, a laser that makes sure food is fresh,
a new test that could give SLE patients a more tolerable life,
indirect land use effects of biofuels, a water-saving shower
and an ingenious vacuum cleaner – the latter two being
degree projects. There was also coverage of LTH’s 50th
anniversary in the local and industry press.

names of all senior researchers are found as search terms in
the media archive Mediearkivet. The large peak in February
for LTH researchers was not caused by one event, but several:
traffic researcher Anders Wretstrand commented on the fact
that it is more dangerous to travel by community transport
than by bus, Ulf Ellervik, Professor of Organic Chemistry, won
the Pi Prize, Per Tunestål, Professor of Combustion Engines,
talked about how compressed air can become fuel and Claus-

FinancesLTH has a plentiful supply of research funding, whereas the
funding for education does not cover expenditure.
Revenue in 2011 was SEK 1 577 million, of which SEK 536
million was for education. Net income for the year was SEK
4.7 million. However, the branches of our operations are
unbalanced, as education reported a deficit of SEK 34 million
while research reported a surplus of SEK 39 million. The public
agency capital – the accumulated income – was SEK 272
million (SEK 267 million in 2010), of which SEK 46 million (SEK
80 million in 2010) was for education and SEK 226 million
(SEK 187 million in 2010) was for research. Unused grants,
which are deferred to coming years, totalled SEK 606 million.
The significant increase in research grants in 2009 has not
yet brought a corresponding increase in expenditure for the
departments. The public agency capital in research, which
is mainly found at department level, therefore continues to
increase in 2011. However, a small reduction in deferred fun-
ding can be noted.
In 2011, LTH educated around 10% more students than stated
in our mandate, on which basis the finances for our opera-
tions are calculated. This is reflected in the deficit reported
for education. Since the majority of the public agency capital
for education is at faculty level, SEK 20 million of the capital
has been transferred to the departments in 2011. The same
procedure applies for 2012.
Extensive investments are being made to improve study envi-
ronments at LTH. In 2011 the renovation of both the Electrical
Engineering Building and the Architecture Building has been
completed. The majority of the investment expenditure has
been covered by the faculty’s education funding.
The requirements for co-financing of research grants and new
conditions for how overhead costs are to be financed will have
a major impact on research finances in the future.
While expenditure is rising, revenue is returning to the levels
seen prior to 2009. Net income fell by around SEK 70 million
between 2010 and 2011! It is therefore important that we
adapt our operations to the right expenditure level to avoid
getting into a situation of large deficits.
