Pro Vice-Chancellor and former student to inaugurate the fair
“These projects are not only the result of hard work from students and teachers, but also a manifestation of our vision.”
Welcome to Utexpo, an exciting fair where we at the University proudly showcase our talented students and their graduation projects! It is with great joy that we once again open the doors to a world of creativity, collaboration, and potential. In previous years, we have witnessed an impressive range of projects, from groundbreaking innovations like an ankle-foot orthosis with a circular lifecycle to a portable solution that improves sleep for ostomy users. These projects are not only the result of hard work from students and teachers, but also a manifestation of our vision to add value, drive innovation and develop society.
Utexpo offers a unique opportunity to see theory meet practice in real projects, often carried out in collaboration with companies and organisations. For our students, it is not just the end of their education but also a starting point for the future. For visitors, Utexpo is a chance to explore our students’ achievements and make valuable connections for future collaborations and recruitment.
We look forward to sharing this inspiring day with you!

This year's Utexpo alumna Cecilia Rönn is a mechanical engineer
I chose to become an engineer because I’ve always been curious about technology – and wanted to work in the intersection between technology and people. This led me to study mechanical engineering between 1999 and 2002 at Halmstad University.
My time as a student became a delightful period, not because for everything that I learned, but also for the sense of community and engagement. I actively participated in student life – served on the Student Union Council and was part of the social committee, which helped me make friends from completely different programmes. Thanks to this, I wrote my thesis together with an innovation engineer.
When it was time for Utexpo, I remember it feeling both exciting and nerve-wracking – like the finale of three intensive and educational years. We exhibited our graduation project, where we, in collaboration with Getinge Sterilization, developed a solution for moving sterilised materials without it being contaminated before packaging. It became the start of a career where I’ve combined technology, leadership, and development. Today, I am a member of parliament for the Liberal Party in Halland and the party’s economic policy spokesperson, but the foundation for everything began here.
