Folkförflyttningar, migration och flykt har tidvis varit mycket märkbart i Europa, och hur dessa historiska villkor skildrats i film och TV är den ena tyngdpunkten i denna kurs. Den andra tyngdpunkten är hur migrationen påverkat själva filmproduktionen, hur filmarbetare flytt från sina hemländer och hur filmproduktioner rört sig transnationellt. Begrepp som exilfilm och diasporafilm får här stort Migration is and has been, a significant influence on European cultures and societies. This course acknowledges this from two main perspectives. On the one hand, how conditions of migration have been represented in film and television – in different national and historical contexts. On the other hand, how migration has affected film production itself, not least regarding how film workers have move

Varför bör man studera förbränning? Ett skäl är att det en viktig energikälla i världen då mer än 85 % av all energianvändning har sitt ursprung I förbränning och att energibehovet ökar med 3 % per år. Ett annat skäl är att kunskaper i förbränning är viktiga för framtidens ingenjörer för att kunna effektivisera förbränningsprocesser och utveckla dem så att de ger lägre utsläpp av skadliga föroreniWhy is it useful to study combustion? One motivation is that this source contributes with more than 85% of all the energy supply in the world, and the energy usage increase globally by 3% per year. Another motivation is that knowledge in combustion is important for the modern engineer or scientist to be able to make combustion processes more efficient and to develop them to produce less pollutants
