Tracks: Impactful Reform for Flexible Adaptable Education

• In this contribution we discuss the progress and achievements of the first three and half years of the Tracks initiative for reformed education at Chalmers University of Technology. In Tracks, the education is designed to give students opportunities to develop inter-disciplinary competencies and to follow individualized study tracks. The purpose of Tracks is also that Chalmers, in collaboration with strategic external partners, shorten the lead times for changing the education to embrace new technologies, emerging materials and concepts and to offer a meeting place for education, research, industry, and society. Three and a half years into the initiative, we conclude that the initial intentions have been achieved. In addition, the project brought unexpected positive effects in, e.g., terms of opportunities for newly recruited faculty and collaboration with sports associations and athletes.
