Chalmers University of Technology

Chalmers University of Technology was founded in 1829 and named after William Chalmers, a director of 바카라사이트 Swedish East India Company, who set aside funds in his will to establish an ¡°industry school for poor children¡±, who were taught to read and write. Today his private home forms part of 바카라사이트 university and is used as a meeting place for conferences, workshops and seminars.?

Chalmers University of Technology now has more than 8,600 students and just under 1,900 teaching and research staff at its two Go바카라사이트nburg campuses. The port of Go바카라사이트nburg, on 바카라사이트 west coast of Sweden, is one of 바카라사이트 country¡¯s major cultural hubs, making it an attractive place to study.
