Our story
Around 40 years ago, trams rolled through the streets of Jönköping, and a handful of ambitious students were about to transform the future of the School of Engineering forever.
It was 1986. Top Gun hit the big screen, Swedish cows finally returned to the fields after Chernobyl — and the spark that became HI TECH was ignited.
What began as a few social gatherings has grown into a thriving community of over 2,500 members. Today, more than 70 active students drive our four committees and workgroups. All with support from 12 dedicated board members.
We blend proud traditions with bold, forward-thinking ideas. Whether you’re here to build connections, create unforgettable experiences, or shape the future of student life — you belong here.
