Welcome to The Satellite! Here you’ll find our current Satellite projects. Read more about the projects and see if any might suit you and your studies. If you find a project that interests you – please let us know!
The Satellite is a project base for student projects carried out in close collaboration with researchers and local authorities/regions. Through The Satellite, the link between education, research and the wider community is strengthened, whilst new ideas and knowledge are captured. This benefits both the students, who get to work on relevant issues, and society, which receives support in its development work.
