The hardest glass in the world, techniques for transmitting feelings via mobile phones and a method for inhibiting resistance to antibiotics – these are all results of collaboration between Stockholm University and external organisations, and the result of creative interaction between students, researchers, business and the broader community.
Businesses, corporations and other organisations have an enormous amount to offer students: student thesis commissions and extracurricular work can give students a unique insight into their field of study as it is reflected in society. This kind of opportunity can contribute to students' employability, as well as giving them an advantage in their future careers.
As the largest university in Sweden, Stockholm University provides businesses and society with a rich pool of expertise and development potential. The exchange of know-how and resources benefits both the University and the community at large.
