Elin Bommenel är universitetslektor och forskare på Institutionen för service management och tjänstevetenskap. Läs mer om forskningen på hennes engelskspråkiga profil.

I started lecturing at a university level in 1999 by giving courses on Scandinavian history in English at the Department of History at Lund University.

In Linköping I developped and ran courses for engineering students on the social role of the engineer, and on the history of science and technology.

In 2002 and 2003 I lectured on science and technology studies at the Department of History of Science and Ideas at Lund University.

In 2002 I also set up the course Diversity Management at the Department of Service Management at Campus Helsingborg, Lund University, where I have been developping and lecturing on courses on service management, health-maintaining leadership, ethics, diversity, conflict management, consumption and identity-making, customer relationship management, academic conduct and academic writing ever since.

I often lecture at other departments on academic writing and academic conduct. Read some comments on my work with academic conduct in Helsingborg and Malmö, or listen to an interview about it.

I am very proud to have recieved Lund University's pedagogic prize for my work in developping our service management programs. Read about the prize inSydsvenskan. Read the list and see important role models from Campus Helsingborg, like Carl Hellberg (1986 and 1992), Lars Haikola (1994) Torgny Roxå (2003), Arne Kristiansen (2004), who have rcieved the price!

Toolbox for academic studies
My teaching departs from the idea that academic skill is something that all students can learn to master, as long as it is turned in to explicit knowledge and not kept as tacit knowledge. This conviction is linked to my reserach interests in legitimacy and the question of who stands to gain from the privilege that certain forms of knowledge are kept tacit.

I have developped a set of workshops called Toolbox for academic studies to this end, which all students at the programmes of Service Management and ofStrategic communication at Campus Helsingborg follow.
