Chalmers tips

Here, we share tips about when courses and webinars that might be particularly interesting for Chalmers students. 

Raveena Nath: "The program broadened my perspective towards interdisciplinary topics and helped me develop a deep understanding of sustainability in urban environment."

Raveena is studying for a master's degree in Infrastructure and Environmental Engineering.
In the summer of 2025, she studied a BIP - Plotting Sustainability at TU Berlin.

"My professor at TU Berlin, André, had a different way of teaching which did not include lectures but involved real life experiences that changed my view about sustainability. It involved a comprehensive learning, involving history, perspectives and values in current society.

The mode of learning was through communication at various levels and sectors of inter disciplinary viewpoints. The program broadened my perspective towards interdisciplinary topics and helped me develop a deep understanding of sustainability in urban environment. In addition to that, I developed good connection with fellow mates and had a great time together.

Also, the green travel stipend encouraged me to take public transport (to Berlin), even though flights were cheaper at the time."
