From the head of department

At the end of this week, it is a great joy to register that faculty board promoted Kjetil Ullaland to professorship in physics following the recommendation by the expert committee. Congratulations Kjetil!

It is also a great pleasure to inform the last year’s bachelor students who intend to continue as master students at our department that they can now make arrangements and get access to the department/ Bachelor room outside the usual working hours, read more information below.

Have a great weekend,

Geir Anton

News and general information

 

Anna Lipniacka reports from Atomiade 2014 in Flachau, Austria

Atomiade is like the Olympics for researchers, and is organized by ASCERI (Association of Sport Communities of European Institutes). The goal of ASCERI is: "To take care of human and sporting contacts of the members of public Research Institutes at European level". Winter games were held this year from March 8-15, and they included disciplines such as  cross-country and alpine. UoB is unfortunately not part of ASCERI, so Anna L. was therefore participating as member of the CERN team. It was a very interesting experience, with great weather conditions, and very successful for the team which won in total 30 medals, as well as 2nd place in team qualifications. The next winter games for researchers will take place in Grenoble in 2017, and IFT might possibly become a member of ASCERI by then? More info and photos: http://asceri-wintergames2014.eu

The petroleum students have won their league for the second time in a row

 

Back row, from the left: Snorre SK Vasshus, Jon Eirik Berle Robstad, Eric Ordaz, Tor Aksel Lystad, Stig Holme Lie, Kevin Marianayagam, Jørgen Størksen. Front row from the left: Håkon Juliussen, Eirik Iden, Lars Korbøl Nordtveit, Preben Sangolt. Goal keeper: Håkon Kyte Haugland. All are students of Petroleum- and Process technology, ranging from the first year of bachelor studies to the last year of their master degree.

 

Everyone from the team would like to thank Stig Holme Lie for starting up the football team, and can guarantee that we will keep this great tradition.

We congratulate the Petroleum students B.I.L on a fantastic season, and wish the team good luck in the 2nd division.

Marie Curie Individual post doc Fellowships

This program is open for all scientific disciplines and supports post docs who would like to work either in Europe or in any country in the world. You can get stipends (salary, travel costs and living allowance) for 12-36 months depending on where you want to go. This is also a fantastic opportunity to recruit new postdocs at the department.

The deadline this year is September 11th. More information can be found on the call page and on UiBs Horizon 2020 website.

Bachelor

Agreement on access-cards for 3rd year bachelor students of IFT

We have now finally defined the guidelines which allow 3rd year bachelor studelnts with the ambition of continuing as master students at the Department of Physics and Technology, who can now already make arrangements and get the access card to the department. We have drafted and agreement which explains in more detail who may qualify for such access, as well as the procedure to apply for the access card. These guidelines can be downloaded and submitted to the leaders of the IFT Fagutvalget for signature, before it is submitted to department’s administration.

PhD

 

  Disputations

MSc Magne Aanes will hold a PhD-disputation by the following title:

Friday, March 28, at 13:15 in Auditorium 2, Realfagbygget. His supervisors were Per Lunde and Magne Vestrheim.

 

h-bar

H-bar is open every Friday from 19:00-01:00.

On Tuesdays, every even-numbered week, there are organized pub-lectures at H-bar. More info at H-bars facebookside.

H-bar is run by IFT’s Fagutvalget and is primarily aimed at department’s students – but employees are also very welcome!
