Will there be research in 2030 and what will it look like?
Welcome to take part in an important discussion on the research conducted in the Nordic countries in 2030 – and what the societal impact of that research will be. Higher education and research should have societal relevance, but who defines that relevance and how?
A key note will be given by Deputy Vice-Chancellor, Professor Heidi Hansson from Umeå University and its Department of Language Studies. After her speech, a panel will discuss different Nordic perspectives on higher education: business, politics and civil society. Panel members: Deputy Vice-Chancellor Fredrika Lagergren from University of Gothenburg, Business Developer Tanja Suni from University of Helsinki and Secretary General Cissi Askwall from VA (Public & Science) in Sweden. The panel is moderated by Docent Tuomas Heikkilä from University of Helsinki.
