We became 18 members when Beckmans College of Design joined Staf. This means that all higher education institutions in Stockholm are now members of Staf. Academic diversity characterises Stockholm with its many universities and colleges and Staf has the past year played an important role when it comes to inclusion in the job market, both within and outside Academia. An example is Staf’s de- velopment of sdcn, Stockholm Dual Career Network, which has been highly effective and much needed. Within sdcn, the Academia collaborates with businesses and the city of Stockholm and many international partners find jobs thanks to Staf’s efforts. As chairman of Staf I witness how Academia strategically works together with other stakeholders to strengthen Stockholm and Swedish competitiveness. The important target to clearly position Stockholm as an excellent academic destination continues and we are looking forward to an exciting 2018.

A study of translation strategies. Författare: Anna Hägg Antal sidor: 31 Abstract: The focus of this paper is on university webpages and the translation of these. With the help of existing translation strategies, it aims to map out the strategies used in Swedish webpages in English with a focus on names and words/expressions for which there are no direct equivalents in English. The study shows that the most common strategies regarding the translation of names were translating word for word and using the nearest equivalent. Regarding language-specific expressions, the most common strategies were using cultural equivalents and reduction. Not surprisingly, additions in the text were most often matters of importance to an international audience, and the most common omissions were matters that only had a local interest.

D Stockholm Academic Forum Valhallavägen 79 114 28 Stockholm, Sweden www.staforum.se Staf Analytics. There are almost 5,500 doctoral students enrolled at a university or university college in Stockholm. Among them, 43% came to Stockholm for their postgraduate education from another country, compared to 36% in the rest of Sweden. In the last ten years, the proportion of internationa l doctoral students has increased significantly, as much as 14 percentage points. The Stockholm Academy is a very attractive place for researchers, which explains the high degree of internationalization in postgraduate education in Stockholm. Sweden also boasts favorable conditions for doctoral students compared to many other countries.

  • Employability of Foreign Graduate Students in Sweden and Finland: Attraction, Integration and Employment of International Graduates in National Labour Market
    Employability of Foreign Graduate Students in Sweden and Finland: Attraction, Integration and Employment of International Graduates in National Labour Market Nataliia Strukova Master’s Thesis Master’s Degree Programme Nordic Cultural and Social Resilience Faculty of Humanities University of Turku May 2020 The originality of this thesis has been checked in accordance with the University of Turku quality assurance system using the Turnitin OriginalityCheck service. THE UNIVERSITY OF TURKU Nordic Cultural and Social Resilience Faculty of Humanities STRUKOVA, NATALIIA: Employability of Foreign Graduate Students in Sweden and Finland: Attraction, Integration and Employment of International Graduates in National Labour Market Master’s thesis, 96 p., 10 appendix pages Nordic Cultural and Social Resilience May 2020 The thesis focuses on the phenomenon of employability among foreign graduate students in Finland and Sweden and how it is supported by the national higher education and migration policies. To do that, the thesis aims to analyse how both countries attract foreign students to higher education institutions, what conditions they create for their successful integration to the local society and labour market and, finally, how well the foreign degree students get employed after graduation. In the theoretical part, the paper investigates the countries’ policies and how they support or challenge the foreign students’ employability. The empirical part represents the data collected through questionnaire. As the result of the performed analysis, it is clear that both countries undergo similar processes in terms of internationalisation of higher education and, therefore, encounter comparable difficulties on the way of integration of the foreign students to the national market. However, student immigration regulations and higher education policies tend to be slightly more inclusive in Finland than in Sweden.

  • Nordic Visual Arts Education in Transition Education Nordic Visual Arts
    14:2008 IN T RANSITION NORDIC VISUAL A RTS EDUCATION The Committee for Educational Sciences has, right from the outset in 2001, initiated a large number of overviews and surveys. The purpose has been to provide a stimulus for discussion about the area of educational science and also to provide further data on the basis of which the Committee can take strategic decisions. This overview presents Nordic research in the realm of visual arts education. The pedagogy of art can be studied on the basis of knowledge of art or teaching. It can be described in terms of visual communication or visual culture. Professor Lars Lindström at Stockholm University, who is the editor of the overview, commences with several articles explaining the conceptual framework and the historical background. This is followed by overviews from the five Nordic countries on research topics between 1995 and 2006 or later.

REPORT 2015:16 REPORT Higher education in Sweden 2015 STATUS REPORT Introduction Higher education is Sweden’s largest public-sector service provider and the concern of many stakeholders. It is important for discussions about higher education and the decisions that affect the way it functions to be based on factual knowledge. Higher Education in Sweden – 2015 status report is a short English version of the annual statistical report on higher education institutions (HEIs) in Sweden published by the Swedish Higher Education Authority (Universitetskanslersämbetet, UKÄ). The ambition is to provide accurate information about the status of Sweden’s higher education. Here you will find answers to questions such as: • How well is Sweden doing from an international perspective? • How much does the Swedish state invest in higher education and the research undertaken at the country’s HEIs? • How many students are acquiring qualifications from higher education in Sweden? This report is based on the statistical data continually reported by the HEIs to Statistics Sweden and the data reported directly to UKÄ in connection with the submission of their annual reports to the Government. Initially, the report summarises some indicators for Swedish higher edu- cation from an international perspective and, under the heading Facts about higher education in Sweden, provides a basic description of the structure of Swedish higher education and the regulatory framework.
