From the head of department
In accordance with the
department’s strategic plan, a committee has now evaluated and recommended
measures for changes and improvements of the basic education in physics at
IFT. In their report they recommend possible models which are based on
changing the existing model so that the students get to work with physics
earlier, and on establishing new basic courses where both theory and
laboratory exercises are integrated. We would like a best possible process in
the future and will, therefore, reserve time for this subject during our
Strategy- and HMS-seminar on November 26 in which participation of all
employees is expected. Many thanks to the committee for their good job: Jan
Petter Hansen (leader), Bodil Holst, Kjellmar Oksavik and the students Kristoffer
Johansen and Agnethe Olsen. Have a great week, News and general information

Innovation in
Space Discoveries: Is There Life Out There? Thursday, September 27.
At 15.00 in Egget, Studentsenteret This year’s Birkeland prize is awarded to
earlier IFT-student
The
scientific committee evaluates the candidates with emphasis on how much the
content of the theses will contribute to technological breakthroughs and
innovation. The prize shall be focused on environment and technology, and
lead to interest for research and development across disciplines. Vi gratulerer! Research days 2012 in Bergen
Fund your risky ideas with
FET-Open Track!
Within the FP7 ICT Cooperation programme, the Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) scheme acts as the
pathfinder for mainstream ICT research. FET-Open
is specifically designed to be open and responsive to fresh thinking.
With the Objective
ICT-2013.9.5 called Xtrack (FP7-ICT-2013-X) ideas
get supported which would not
be supported elsewhere in the ICT Work programme. It seeks: ·
foundational breakthroughs within a clear long-term
vision that is far beyond the state of the art; ·
novelty coming from new, high-risk ideas rather than
from the refinement of current ICT approaches; ·
new inter-disciplinary collaborations. The funding scheme is STREP (Small and medium-scale focused
research projects; cooperative), usually 2-3 years duration, and the indicative budget distribution is EUR
15 million. Submission and evaluation are continuous, with final
deadline 29 January 2013. There
is a new and lighter submission process with one-stage submission scheme. The
project proposal is max. 10 pages, the evaluation faster and the project
implementation simpler. This pilot bridges to the implementation of the FET
Open Scheme in Horizon2020. Get in touch with the Division of Research
Management for any help: Corina Guder (555 89737) or Anja Hegen (555 82012). Announcement of researcher exchange between
UiB and University of Washington (UW)/ Memorial University (MU)
The announcement applies to scientific employees and
PhD students within all disciplines. The research stay can be used for the
purpose of research, teaching or a combination subject to agreement with the
host institution. The announcement can be downloaded from here. The application deadline is on Friday,
November 2. The
voice of an angel with physicist and comedian Helen Arney
This
Saturday at 20.00 Studentersamfunnet presents, in cooperation with the
Research days event, physicist/comedian Helen Arney with
her show The Voice of an Angle. More
information about the show can be found here. STAFF
We are
happy to wish a new colleague welcome to our department:
STUDENTs
Application deadline for travel and seminar support for M.Sc.
students, fall 2012 Have you travelled or
are you planning to travel on field work,
conference/seminar during the fall of 2012? You can then apply for financial
support (max. 7500,- NOK during the entire M.Sc.
studies). See for more information and download
application form. The travel which is to be funded has to take place between
September 1, 2012 and December 1, 2012. The application form can be sent
to/delivered to Kristine Indahl Helle until Tuesday, October 1. Applications which are delivered after the deadline will
not be evaluated. h-bar
H-bar is run by the
Scientific Committee at the department and is primarily for the students
– but employees are also welcome! Final M.Sc. examinationDiego Armando Hernandez
Rubio will take the final examination for the M.Sc. degree in process
technology with the following thesis title:
Monday September 24 at
08.15 in room 292, IFT. The thesis supervisor is Alex C. Hoffmann. IFT in the media
In order to be able to
track down all dissemination efforts, it is important that all employees and
students provide a tip. We need to know the name of all who are mentioned / interviewed
at IFT, title and link as well as channel and date. We would like to receive
a scanned copy of the contribution for those that are available only on
paper. Remember that most newspapers etc. will, upon request, provide a pdf
of interviews and other forms of dissemination. Publications registered in ISI
