  5. ACCESS Industry Internship Program ACCESS PhD students have chosen options: • You take a leave from KTH for 2-3 months to work at Ericsson or ABB on a project in the area of ACCESS, but not necessary directly related to your thesis work. • You keep your KTH salary but relocate to Ericsson or ABB for 2-3 months to work on a joint co-sponsored project more directly related to your current research direction. PhD student reponses: 14 answers. Most of them prefer option 1 and suggest summer time or just after the summer. One already had a discussion with Ericsson about option 2. Next steps

  6. ACCESS Undergrad Summer Program Background: Many of the labs in ACCESS engage talented undergraduate and master students in their research during the summers. This coming summer we plan to organize some joint events for all these students under an ACCESS umbrella.   Planned events • ACCESS Undergraduate Summer Programme kick-off: June 10th at 10-12 in lecture room Q2. Introduce ACCESS and welcome lunch. • Joint social activity: Details TBD. The event will be organized around July 1. • Final workshop: August 30th, details TBD. Here the students will present the outcomes of their projects. ACCESS is responsible for the common costs of these events, but not for student salaries etc. USP Lead: Henrik Sandberg
