Topics include:

⚡ Electricity, gas & hydrogen infrastructure
🔐 Cybersecurity & critical infrastructure
🌱 The green transition

What does it actually look like when theory starts to feel real?🤔

In our latest Shortreads piece, we spoke with Marie and Freja about working at Thylander while studying at DTU, and what changes when classroom knowledge begins to show up in real decisions, real projects, and real teams🏗️📚

What stood out wasn’t just the work itself, but the shift in perspective. How a profession starts to feel tangible long before graduation: through trust, learning by doing, and being in environments where your contribution is taken seriously💡

If you’re a student trying to picture the step from university to working life, this one’s worth a read!
