From the head of department
During last week, we
participated in two seminars at IFT with the purpose of stimulating research
and education across the boundaries among research groups and departments.
The first seminar was within nanoscience with the Department of Chemistry and
Department of Molecular Biology, and with the Department of Geoscience and
Christian Michelsen Research within underground monitoring. It is very
interesting to see how enhanced knowledge on each other’s fields, facilities
and interests leads to enthusiasm and stimulates to new multidisciplinary
opportunities. This is needed in order to contribute with new knowledge, meet
global challenges and get new funding. IFT would like to host such seminars
which could lead to such possibilities – locally within the department, with
other departments at UiB as well as outside UiB – you just need to contact us !! Have a great week, News and general information
Election of safety representatives and deputy safety representatives for 2013-2014UiB’s safety
representatives will complete their duties by the end of 2012. We will
therefore elect new representatives for the period of 2013-2014. The safety
representatives have an important function in the work environment at UiB. They
will make sure that the employer does everything to provide all employees
with a satisfactory working environment. The safety representatives will
participate in the planning and execution of the systematic HMS-work in
cooperation with the board. Employees can
propose candidates to the chief of administration on a separate form until November 7. Read also the letter from the
Personnel- and organization department about the election for more
comprehensive information, and about the election of the chief safety
representative. Open meeting by the
