A WORD from the head of department
Last Friday we had the
premiere of the film ”A Practical Professor” and a lot of people showed up. Those
who did not have a chance to see it yet, can enjoy
it in peace and in good quality at Vimeo, check the
link below. Otherwise, we would like to recommend the 7-fjells conference on Renewable Energy which is an important
meeting place for all interested or active in Norway’s role in meeting the
global need for more energy. Bear in mind that it is also possible for
students to participate free of charge at this conference! A great weekend to all
of you, news
and general information
Registration in Cristin
The deadline for registering is 15. February and
those who still haven’t done it, must now also upload the year’s achievements
in Cristin where you have to log in as UoB employee (UiB-ansatt). In addition to the scientific articles, this
also refers to popular articles, debate contributions, media appearances
– both radio and TV, etc. Also, in case of several authors from UoB, it is the first author’s responsibility to upload
the data. 7-fjellskonferansen
(The 7-mountains conference) Renewable Energy
A tempting and exciting programme for the conference is now ready and available
for downloading from the conference webpage where there is also a link for registering. The
conference has also its own page at Facebook. Even if you are not sure if you will be able
to participate, it is still a good idea to mark the date in your calendars. Lakselaget
Scholarship
Lakselaget Offers
Scholarships to Minnesota and Norwegian Women for the ninth time in its
ten-year history. The application deadline is March 1, 2012. Lakselaget offers
scholarships to Minnesota women desiring to study in Norway and to Norwegian
women wishing to study in Minnesota or at the University of North Dakota,
Grand Forks. The organization also provides grants to Minnesota professional
women who have an opportunity to work in Norway and to Norwegian women who
have an opportunity to work in Minnesota. The grants are meant to supplement
wages lost for experience gained. Applicants should have an interest in
contemporary Norway and in the sciences, technology, business, politics,
language and culture, or in the cooperation between the countries. The Lakselag Scholarship Fund was established to celebrate,
encourage and advance the organization's motto: women who swim against the
current. Its goal is to promote international connections between Minnesota
and Norway and allows recipients to obtain, teach and share knowledge that
will benefit women in their complex roles in today's society. Lakselaget is a 501(c)(3)
non-profit organization for professional women and college and university
students who are Norwegian, of Norwegian descent, or are interested in
contemporary Norwegian issues and all things Norwegian. The organization meets the first Saturday of each month from October
through May to network, mentor, eat salmon, and receive information
from a variety of noteworthy speakers. Topics range from the arts to health,
history, sports, heritage and beyond. For more
information about the scholarship and opportunity fund application process,

Director Karin Holt. Register for IFT alumni!
IFT Alumni is a tool designed primarily for keeping contact with our former students once they are done with their education, or at least to be able to follow where they go later with their work careers. IFT Alumni is open for the current and former students (master and PhD), as well as department employees. Registration is optional and voluntary, but we hope that the majority will join. We have chosen two parallel solutions for this:
It would
be great if you use both, it doesn’t take such a long time to upload your
information. Don’t forget that e-mail address and mobile phone number are the
minimum required in order to be able to keep contact whith
others. Apart from the time required for registration and updates, there is
no other cost or time-loss regarding this. The aim of IFT Alumni is primarily
to have all contact information gathered and available for all participants, but
both at UiB Alumni and LinkedIn it is possible to
start and participate in various discussions for those who wish to do so. It
is also possible to choose how many automatic e-mails
you will be receiving in your mailbox. We hope that as many as possiblewill join these groups. Please do spread the word
among the former employees and students with whom you are still in touch, and
ask them also to spread the word! STAff
We have
the pleasure of wishing our new colleague a heartfelt welcome to our
department:
