Hi Mark, Hehe, yes to both, I suppose, though as stated I am guessing at what he actually studied. (Could ask him I suppose.)
I found these, btw (after I posted, I swear!) http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dr._med._vet. and http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civilingenj%C3%B6r .. so it's ALL *facts* : D /Sunil From: mgi...@gibbs.com Date: Fri, 24 May 2013 11:50:29 -0700 Subject: Re: [Vo]:Hartman's not a vet... To: vortex-l@eskimo.com Sunil, May I quote you in a Forbes posting? If I may, may I cite your name? Thanks in advance. Yours, Mark Gibbs.

Torbjörn Hartman's personal merits (as listed at http://katalog.uu.se/empInfo?id=N96-5170) state "Dr.Med.vet., civ.ing.". Assuming the line is written in Swedish (which it is, trust me : ), it says: Doktor i Medicinsk Vetenskap, Civilingenjör. These translate into English as: PhD Medical Science, MSc. So, my guess is he did an MSc in Engineering Physics (5 yrs) followed by research/studies in medicine. CivIng does NOT mean Civil Engineer in Sweden. It covers ALL higher level engineering science paths, that lead to a Master's level degree, and are 4-5 years long. The traditional paths being ChemEng, EE, Eng Physics, Computer Science and _Civil_Engineering_ I am bilingual (Swedish/English) and did Engineering Physics (MSc) : ) /Sunil
