Abstract

This short overview of education in computer graphics and visualization in Sweden was compiled through contact with all the main universities in Sweden. Although we don't know of any "pure" visualization course in Sweden, some visualization material is included in many of the computer graphics courses. There are also courses on related topics, such as multimedia and human computer interaction. Computer graphics teachers in Sweden meet every other year. Also education is one of the interest areas for the Swedish computer graphics society, Sigrad, and we are working with the Eurographics Working Group on Education.
