A
Word from Department Administration
|
The work on the departmentÕs
strategic plans for 2011-15 is now entering its final phase and will be ready
for passing the decision by the department council on October 27. The plan
has been reviewed at the department councilÕs meeting on Thursday and the
last discussion round will take place at a meeting with research group
leaders and the student council during the first half of October. We would
like to encourage all the academic employees to come up with their own
suggestions via research group leaders, and the administrative and technical
employees via their own respective leaders. We would also like to encourage
students to come up with their own ideas and suggestions and contact the Fagutvalget. Best regards |

We would like to remind you that
the Research Days have now come in full swing. UoB is
hosting the Research Days in Bergen, and all faculties are being represented
in the programme. All UoB-employees
should have received the programme booklet and have
most probably noticed that the Mat-Nat-faculty is well represented this year,
particularly in connection with this yearÕs main topic
which is chemistry. Below is an overview of the facultyÕs great
contribution: á
School project ÓVirtual chokolate
cake bakingÓ
at Department of Chemistry (Egil Nodland) and Krohnengen school.
The
project has started with the start of the school year and the pupils present
their results at ÓSchool DayÓ, on Friday, September 23. á
Candidate in Researcher Grand Prix, Friday, September 23: Thomas Gjesteland,
