About Fredrik Engström

Associate Professor of Logic (Universitetslektor and Docent). Deputy Dean (Prodekan) at the Faculty of Humantites.

I did my PhD in Mathematics at Chalmers University of Technology in 2004 with a thesis on mathematical logic. Part of the work was done at the University of Birmingham.

Worked as Senior Lecturer in Mathematics at the Mid Sweden University in Sundsvall before moving to the University of Gothenburg in 2006. In Gothenburg, I was first hired as Postdoctoral Reseach Fellow, then as Researcher and since 2018 as Senior Lecturer in Logic. Served as Head of the Department of Philosophy, Linguistics and Theory of Science from 2016 to 2021.

My research is focused around models of first-order arithmetic, generalized quantifiers, dependence logic and logical constants.
