Dalarna University

Högskolan Dalarna is a Swedish higher-education institution that combines teaching with research. Its website is in Swedish and describes study programmes and courses together with practical information for students during their studies.

A special feature is the option to combine elite-level sport with university studies, so that athletes can keep training at a high level while completing a degree.

Research at Högskolan Dalarna aims to contribute to a democratic and sustainable society. Current projects include:

• Inclusive leadership in the tourism and hospitality sector
• Energy systems, including district heating and the use of renewable electricity
• Welfare technology in elderly care, in cooperation with the municipality of Säter
• Solar electricity, as a participant in SOLVE, the Swedish national solar electricity research centre

Högskolan Dalarna also holds research seminars, open lectures, conferences and informal after-work events with researchers.
