Lysator, the Academic Computer Society
Lysator is an academic computer society located at Linköping University in Linköping, Sweden. Its purpose is to give its members opportunity to explore the world of computers and computer science. Anyone that studies or works at Linköping University may join. Currently, Lysator has almost 600 members.
Lysator was founded the 29th of March 1973, and is the oldest university computer society in Sweden. The non-profit society is an independent body; separate from the departments and faculties of the university and from the students' union. We primarily provide computer access and services for our members, host different computer-related projects that our members are involved in, and provide posibilities for our members to try different hardware and software.
