Introduction
Royal Institute of Technology is an engineering college founded in 1827 and is one of the largest engineering colleges in Sweden. The early name of the school was "Teknologiska Institutet," but it was changed to its current name in 1877. The university is an important breeding ground for Swedish engineers, and about one-third of engineers graduate from here, with many of its departments leading globally. The main building of the campus, which was built in 1917, is a masterpiece of architect Erik Lallerstedt. The buildings on the campus and the surrounding area were decorated by Swedish artists Carl Milles, Axel Törneman, Georg Pauli, Tore Strindberg, and Ivar Johnsson from the early 20th century, giving it a unique cultural atmosphere. In addition, the school's library is also worth visiting, and visitors can also explore nearby Stockholm University. Address Brinellvägen 8, 114 28 Stockholm, Sweden
