KTH Royal Institute of Technology (Swedish: Kungliga Tekniska högskolan, abbreviated KTH) is a university in Stockholm, Sweden. KTH was founded in 1827 as Sweden's first polytechnic and is one of Scandinavia's largest (the largest by certain definitions) institutions of higher education in technology. KTH accounts for one-third of Sweden's technical research and engineering education capacity at university level. KTH offers programmes leading to a Master of Architecture, Master of Science in Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Engineering, Bachelor of Science, Master of Science, licentiate or doctoral degree. The university also offers a technical preparatory programme for non-scientists and further education.
There are a total of just over 14 000 full-year equivalent undergraduate students, more than 1700 active postgraduate students and 4600 full-time-equivalent employees. KTH is one of the leading technical universities in Europe and highly respected worldwide, especially in the domains of technology and natural sciences.
Institute of technology (also: university of technology, polytechnic university, technikon, and technical college) is a designation employed for a wide range of learning institutions awarding different types of degrees and operating often at variable levels of the educational system. It may be an institution of higher education and advanced engineering and scientific research or professional vocational education, specializing in science, engineering, and technology or different sorts of technical subjects. It may also refer to a secondary education school focused in vocational training. The term institute of technology is often abbreviated IT and is not to be confused with information technology.
The English term polytechnic appeared in the early 19th century, from the French École Polytechnique, an engineering school founded in 1794 in Paris. The French term comes from the Greek πολύ (polú or polý) meaning "many" and τεχνικός (tekhnikós) meaning "arts".
While the terms "institute of technology" and "polytechnic" are synonymous, the preference concerning which one is the preferred term varies from country to country.
Royal Institute or Royal Institution may refer to the following, among other institutions:

Stephen Hawking arrives at KTH Royal Institute of Technology
Royal Institute of Technology's Finest
Dr Dante, instructions for young PhD student at KTH (Royal Institute of Technology)
KTH President Peter Gudmundson welcomed Stephen Hawking to the university moments ago. Hawking is at KTH Royal Institute of Technology for the beginning of the Hawking Radiation Conference. An historic gathering of the world's 32 top physicists, who were convened to attempt to solve one of science's most vexing puzzles: the information loss paradox.

Gave my friend a birthday present he wont forget! Emmaboda Superstage, High speed autocross in the South of Sweden. Cockpit view of the mad evo x. Sorry if you dont understand the Swedish in this video. No kittens were harmed during this production.
This is a somewhat jocular instructional film for young PhD students at KTH (Royal Institute of Technology). It is produced by Lars Harder, Mats Leksell and Roland Orre as part of a course in presentation technique. The film is converted from VHS to mpeg. The language used is Swedish.
In this Friday Evening Discourse at the Royal Institution, Professor Jim Al-Khalili explores how the mysteries of quantum theory might be observable at the biological level. Although many examples can be found in the scientific literature dating back half a century, there is still no widespread acceptance that quantum mechanics -- that baffling yet powerful theory of the subatomic world -- might play an important role in biological processes. Biology is, at its most basic, chemistry, and chemistry is built on the rules of quantum mechanics in the way atoms and molecules behave and fit together. As Jim explains, biologists have until recently been dismissive of counter-intuitive aspects of the theory and feel it to be unnecessary, preferring their traditional ball-and-stick models of th...
Andy takes a closer look at one of his favourite demos from the 2012 Christmas Lectures, bringing together a levitating superconductor and a bewildering Möbius strip made from over 2,000 magnets. We'd love it if you helped us translate this video: http://www.youtube.com/timedtext_video?v=zPqEEZa2Gis As his super-conducting boat whizzes along the track, Andy demonstrates the remarkable properties of the superconducting material (Yttrium barium copper oxide) which allows it to seemingly float both above and below the track.

This movie is from an archive of VHS recordings from an experimental installation between Royal Institute of Technology and Sergel Torg, both places in Stockholm. By using a video loop, participants could interact with each other and do things like dancing and playing music. The delay was down to 4 ms over fibre optic cables. Knudsen has published the results in a paper called: "Synchronous Virtual Spaces - transparent technology for producing a sense of presence at a distance", Knudsen, 2001. The two musicans playing is me and my good friend Dr. Alex Jonsson (saxophone)
(English below) Seminario tenuto al KTH Royal Institute of Technology of Stockholm, il 9 Agosto, 2013 Titolo: Il lavoro di essere felici Relatore: Francesco Grandis, nomad worker (lavoratore nomade) Contenuti: Abbiamo guide complete per quasi tutto. Abbiamo regole morali, abbiamo leggi, abbiamo molte scelte educative. Abbiamo leader che ci guidano e la società ci insegna a studiare prima, poi trovare un lavoro, formare una famiglia, fare una carriera. Ma la felicità? Nessuno vi può istruire a essere felici, perchè nessuno sa veramente come si fa. Francesco Grandis è un ex ingegnere, che un giorno ha smesso di seguire ciecamente la massa per inseguire il bene più grande. Durante il seminario, vi spiegherà perchè ha lasciato la sicurezza e la comodità di un lavoro sicuro per diventare ...
On the final day of International Conference, Prof. Lotta Dellve (KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden) discussed at length the leadership issues in health care organisations with special reference to those existing in Sweden. In her presentation on "Caring for the Carers", she highlighted the need for value based leadership. She also brought forward a work engagement model and discussed the implications of corporate social responsibility in the health care sector. Father Eugene Joseph (Diocese of Varanasi Education Society) aired his views on transformational leaders for human well being. The transformation shift should encompass responsible autonomy, authenticity, humility and professional will and emotional intelligence, he added. For achieving it he hinted at convergence of spiri...
