Filip Skärin, doctoral student in Production Systems, will nail his doctoral thesis on September 16th. 

The nailing ceremony takes place at JTHs entrance at 09.30 am and you are all invited to attend. After the ceremony, you are invited to meet for coffee and "spiktårta" that will be served in Galleriet.

The nailing ceremony is an old tradition in which the thesis is released and no changes may be done thereafter. 

The title of Filip's doctoral thesis is "On the Transition Towards Circular Production Systems".

Filip will defend his thesis on October 10th at 10 am in E1405 (Gjuterisalen).

Welcome to attend the ceremony!

Welcome to the opening of the library’s exhibition, Research in colour - A visual journey through 30 years of scientific publishing at Jönköping University.

In this exhibition, publication statistics have been transformed into images. Through vivid visualisations, you will gain insight into the topics researched at JU’s various schools – and how these topics have developed and are interconnected.

We are celebrating this with an event at the library. President Måns Svensson will give the opening speech, followed by a panel discussion reflecting on the past and future of scientific publishing. There will be mingling with light refreshments at the exhibition.

When? Tuesday, 16 September, 16:00–16:45

MMTC Lunch-time Seminar with Guest Speaker Anna-Karin Zinnefors

We are pleased to welcome Anna-Karin Zinnefors to MMTC for a lunch-time seminar, where she will share insights from her extensive experience within Municipal Corporations.

Municipal corporations are hybrid organizations – not quite public, not quite private – which makes them a fascinating subject of study from multiple perspectives including marketing, accounting, management, and entrepreneurship. They provide essential public values such as water, energy, and housing, while at the same time operating as limited joint stock companies with high levels of transparency and accessible data.

For researchers, municipal corporations offer unique opportunities: decision-makers are often more open to collaboration than in private firms, research access is easier, and the societal and policy relevance is high. Despite this, there is still limited research on them in Sweden, creating excellent potential for impactful projects and publications. Moreover, funders such as the KK Foundation have shown strong interest in this area due to its societal significance.

Date & Time: Tuesday, 17th September, 12:00 - 13:00
