Introduction |
The
increasing number of emails and letters requesting information from us
is leading to very long response times. For this reason the most usual
answers to the most usual questions will be posted on this page. This
is not because of lack of interest to communicate from our side, but
because of resource limitations. |
Question |
Answer |
Can I make a
PhD at your division? |
This is dependent on two generic factors:
A/ is your research interest connected to the reserarch we do and do
you have suitable qualifications? Check out the information on our
homepage. B/ Is funding available? When we have funding for new
PhD-programmes, the normal procedure is to advertise them on the
homepage on the "jobs"
link and elswhere. Further information is available with the job
announcement. For the case that
you have your own funding we will make an individual assessment with
respect to A above. Contact the supervisor of the
research area
you aim to join. |
Can I make a master project at your
division? |
There are two main
pathways to start a MSc project at our division. A/ We announce
projects and contact persons on our
MSc-projects
webpage or elsewhere. Applicants will be individually evaluated as
in the case of PhD studies, see above. B/ Alternatively a student can
suggest projects or ask the supervisor of a research area if there are
oportunities in that area that have not yet been advertised on the
webpage. See the
research homepage of the division for contact information. For
projects which does not belong to a specified research area contact
the division head.
There is no salary funding
for masters projects from our part, often master projects at the
division are sponsored by and performed in co-operation with external
organisations and companies that may or may not compensate students
for their work. |
Can I make a practice term at your
division? |
Sometimes we do have a need of practical
assistance in projects: Check with the
research
supervisor of the area of your interest. Alternatively check the
job
announcement page. The tasks listed on our "student
projects"- page are only open for MSc-students at LTU. |
Can you send me a report or paper
so and so? |
Look at our homepage where the
reports
for sale are listed together with ordering information. If you are
interested in something which is not listed there, but you know that
it exists, direct your question to
Avfallsteknik@luth.se |
Can you send me information in
general about
"this or that"? |
Normally no. It is rarely the case that
"generic" or broad questions can be answered because we do
not have the time to compile the information. Check first with libraries
or information banks on the web. Perhaps our "reports
for sale" or our
list of links can
give further ideas. If you formulate very
specific questions chances are better that an answer can be provided in
reasonable time. Contact the appropriate
research
supervisor. |
