From
the head of department
I would like to
apologize once again for the noise and discomfort related to the current
reconstructions taking place at our department. Gjert is doing an amazing job
in coordinating between EIA and the workers, but now and then there might be
some unfortunate mishaps. As an extra effort to reduce the annoyance, we open
the possibility of working from home for those of you who perceive find the
reconstruction work unbearable and who are dealing with the type of work that
can be done from home – particularly for those who are seated in the
corridors where the reconstruction is currently taking place. Have a great weekend, Geir Anton News and general information
The schedule for the
reconstruction work at the department
We are
unfortunately lagging behind the planned reconstruction schedule, among other
things also because we have set restrictions to the amount of noise the work
should produce. The way it seems right now, the 2nd floor will be finished by
the end of April. The work in the 3rd floor should start in May, but with
planning meeting with those effected by the work, whereas
the reconstruction of the 5th floor will have to wait until after
the summer. In the 3rd floor this will also involve a special reconstruction
of the administrative area which will demand extra time. Election meeting – Presentation
of rector candidates
Everyone is encouraged
to join the valgmøte related to the rector elections. Debate will be
hosted by Frank Aarebrot. Wednesday, April 10,
from 12:00 – 14:00, Egget, Studentsenteret. IFT open seminar
All are welcome to
attend the Horizon lecture where Lawrence M. Krauss, Arizona State
University, holds a
lecture by the following title: Wednesday, April 10, at 15:00, Egget,
Studentsenteret "The question,
"why is there something rather than nothing?" has been asked for
millenia by people who speculate on the need for a creator of our Universe.
Today, exciting scientific advances provide new insight into this
cosmological mystery: Not only can something arise from nothing,
something will always arise from nothing. Deadline for registering exam
dates: April 26
The
deadline for course leaders to register exam dates for spring semester is April
26.This is important so as to inform the student sof the actual deadlines for
unregistering for the exams, two weeks before the course’s first exam date. In
case a course will have an exam before May 15, this has to be notified
earlier. Send information on dates and censors to Kristine Indahl Helle. News

Technical Science Academy
NTVA
invites to a meeting in Bergen with senior
researcher Ivar Wærnhus from CMR Prototech: Tuesday, April 16, at 19:00 at Nansen
Centre at Marineholmen, Thormøhlens gate 47. The meeting will be followed by a simple meal
consisting of fish soup and socializing. The price is 100 NOK per meal.
Påmelding latest by 15:00 o’clock on
Thursday, April 11, but this is required only if you intend to stay for the
meal. Write to Change the World - OpEd-workshop for women on writing opinion
editorials in
The Geophysical Institute is, in collaboration
with the Earth Science Women's network (ESWN), organizing an OpEd course on
writing opinion editorials, specifically targeted at women May 6th & 7th,
2013. The goal of this
workshop at the University of Bergen is to promote female scientists within
the scientific community, on an individual basis, and within the global
community of public discourse. Please find more information on website or in the flyer. If you have questions, contact Mirjam or Rose. Welcome to this year’s most important conference on research on
environment-friendly energy May 23!
The
conference is scheduled for May 23rd and this year’s topic is research for a
global market. The conference will present in which ways internationalization
influences Norwegian energy research. We invite to a debate on what means
should be effected in order to contribute to a competitive business and research
environment. Read the programme here and register here. The conference will be arranged at Ole-Johans
Dahls house at the University of Oslo. PhD
Do you want to become a better
mediator? Join the researcher grand prix 2013
Welcome to the information meeting, May 7, from 11:00-12:00
at Communications
Department, 2nd floor, Stein Rokkans hus, Nygårdsgaten 5. We intend to talk
about what it means for research assistants to participate in Researcher Grand
Prix , such as among other things: ·
Who can participate? Coaching-
and training ·
Its significance in your PhD work ·
The benefits of participating in RGP ·
Registration and selection More information and registration at kalenderen at uib.no PhD courses at
In
April 2013 the University Library offers PhD candidates at the Faculty of
Mathematics and Natural Sciences a series of courses addressing publishing
issues, advanced literature searching techniques and information management.
The faculty highly recommends participation! The main part of the program is
held on April 17th and will include a free lunch for the participants, so
please note that your registration is binding. For
registration and further information, please see here. Sommerskole ved Renmin University i Kina
For the
fourth year in a row, the Renmin University arranges in i Beijing a summer
school with the aim of giving students from the entire world an introduction
into Chinese culture and society. The lectures are in English and cover,
among other things, Chinese
politics and economy. There will also be an introductory course of Chinese
language. In cooperation with The Norwegian Embassy in Beijing, two students will
be selected and will be given the opportunity to participate in the course
free of charge. The
summer school takes place from 3.-30. July 2013 and students who are
interested in participating must deliver their applications marked ”Summer School Renmin University” latest
by April 15 at the Glass house at Langesgate 1-3. The application should
consist of a
short description of their motivation for participating in the course and how
this would match their education plan. Remember to mark the application with full
name and student number. Send e-mail to utveksling@uib.no in case of any questions. Read more about the summer school here. Bachelor
h-bar H-bar is open every Friday from19:00-01:00. On Tuesdays, every
even-numbered week, there will be pub-lectures at H-bar. More info
at H-bars
facebookside. H-bar is run by the
department’s Fagutvalget and is primarily aimed at department’s students – but
the employees are also welcome! IFT i
