of routines and administrative processes, demanding working conditions and a
feeling of isolation. The doctoral students at KTH wish for more, according to a survey from the PhD Chapter mapping KTH's research education from the students’ perspective.

"Upon reviewing my own courses, I realized the
need for streamlining. Consequently, I will slightly reduce the number of

these adjustments not only to reduce costs but also to enhance the quality of
courses in line with the principles of the 'Future Education.'" Read Mats Magnusson's blog
