Each study year is divided into two terms of 30 credit each (20 weeks), autumn term and spring term. Each term is then divided into two periods of 15 credits each. Course web pages can be found under the term in which they are offered.Note that the elective courses can vary from year to year. The elective courses presented here under the second and third terms are the ones offered in the current o

The professional daily life of bank employees has drastically changed in many ways over the course of the period spanning from 1945 to 1995: computerization has affected the manner of working; a broader and more comprehensive assortment of services is now offered; the bank employees'corps has gone from being composed of two thirds men, to being made up of two thirds women; and changes in society h
Popular Abstract in English Peter is a part-time cocoa farmer who produces cocoa beans that are used for chocolate production. However, he has always wondered about the efficient utilisation of the residual cocoa pods, which seem to contain sugar as they attract bees. He discussed this with a student studying a biological process whereby organic material can be converted to biogas and a residue th
Popular Abstract in Swedish En av dagens största utmaningar är de stadigt ökande utsläppen av förorenande avgaser och drivhusgaser. Den största delen av dessa föroreningar kommer från förbränningsanläggningar och fordon. För att kunna minska utsläppen måste man förstå förbränningsprocesserna, och hur man kan kontrollera förbränningen. Utmaningen är att förbränningprocesser är mycket komplexa. Det
Råttan är en däggdjursart med en kort dräktighetstiden och föds därför mycket omogen. Den är vid födelsen naken, blind och döv och är helt beroende av sin moder för många funktioner, såsom näringstillförsel, termoreglering, urinering och tarmtömning. Under diperioden är råttans mag-tarmsystem och matsmältning helt anpassad till modersmjölkdieten. Bland annat är tarmens barriärfunktion omogen, vilkThe rat, as an altritial species, is born with an immature gastrointestinal tract and intestinal barrier function, which is highly absorptive to milk-borne bioactive molecules that can pass undigested and reach the general circulation of the suckling newborn. This passage occurs by the neonatal-Fc-receptor (FcRn) binding and trancytosis of immunoglobulin G in the proximal small intestine (SI) and
Blodet bär med sig syre och näringsämnen som är vitala för vävnadens överlevnad, och därför är karakterisering av hjärnans blodförsörjning av stor betydelse. Blodflödet i kapillärerna kallas för perfusion. Vid MRI-baserad perfusionsmätning i hjärnan utnyttjas ofta signalförändringar orsakade av ett spårämne i blodet. Spårämnet kan antingen skapas internt genom märkning av det arteriella inflödet a
Popular Abstract in English The chemical industry has greatly contributed to the advancement of the human civilization. However, the side effects of this industry have become a real environmental burden. The message in this thesis is that enzymes have a great potential as catalysts for clean and sustainable processes. With three enzymes: an esterase, a lipase and a phytase, the thesis demonstrated
This paper presents in some detail findings and experiences gained from a new course entitled “Innovation Engineering” (IE). This course is offered in the Technology Management Programme (TM) at Lund University, Lund, Sweden. The incentive for developing the new course was the need for a more integrated and practical approach where technical, customer and application problems from reality confront
The cholinergic hypothesis of geriatric memory dysfunction suggests that the learning and memory deficits representing the cardinal symptoms of dementia in the aged and in patients suffering from Alzheimer's disease may be attributable to a decline in the function of the cholinergic projection systems of the basal forebrain. Although many studies have addressed the issue of a causal relationship b
In January 1990 an expert group was set up by DP2 of TC2, CEC to define the research and development work needed to be undertaken within the community to achieve a robust solution with respect to reaction-to-fire material classification. The expert group delivered in December 1990 its proposal for a 5-year research and development program. But a system of harmonised European fire test methods and
The L3, or sponge, phase is a thermodynamically stable isotropic liquid consisting of a surfactant membrane in aqueous solution. A solvent induced L3 phase is shown in systems of solvent, monoolein and water. Dimethyl sulfoxide, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, ethanol, N-methyl-alfa-pyrrolidone and 2-methyl-2,4-pentanediol are solvents of varying hydrophilicity but are all miscible with bot
Much scientific evidence indicates that the Earth's climate is changing and the world has become more concerned about the global climate. This has encouraged many countries to consider future clean power production with wind power taking an increasing part. In Sweden, the government declared the intention of generating 30 TWh/year from the wind by 2020 instead of 7.1 TWh/year achieved in 2012. Egy
Sweden is a country that traditionally respects the freedom of association and the large number of existing trade unions confirms this statement.On the other hand, however, the Swedish trade union system is structured in a way that eliminates almost every sort of competition between different organizations. In fact, for every sector of the economy there is approximately one union for blue collars
Video capsule endoscopy (VCE), perfomed by ingesting a small vitamin-sized camera pill, was developed over a period of a couple of decades and –since its introduction in clinical practice at the dawn of the millennium– has become an essential tool in the diagnosis and management of small bowel (SB) diseases. At the same time, other fields such as minimally invasive diagnosis of other parts of the
The majority of research in second language acquisition has traditionally focused on classroom-based, instructed learning. However, with the spread of new technologies and the concomitant globalisation of popular culture, informal second language practices (ISLPs; e.g. watching films and television, using social media, or playing video games in another language) are increasingly becoming part of t
