Snapshots

I’m Thomas Mejtoft, an Associate Professor of Media Technology, appointed Excellent Teacher at Umeå University and, since 2011, acting as the director of the highly rated five-year integrated Master of Science program in Interaction Technology and Design at Umeå University. During fall 2018, I had the honor to be a STINT Teaching Sabbatical Fellow at the School of Computer Science and Engineering at Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore. The Teaching Sabbatical program is the oldest and most prestigious of the STINT grants. Each year roughly 10-15 teacher in higher education in Sweden have the honor to become STINT Fellows
