A Word from Department Head Last week was largely influenced by the CERN evaluation meeting. Many have contributed with great work, and we hope this will contribute to further development of activities at CERN. This week there is an open meeting on new strategy at UoB. I assume there are many of you who would like to participate in this meeting. More information about this meeting can be obtained here. Note that there is a registration deadline on Tuesday. Not many supervisors signed up for Friday’s ceremony for those who completed their master studies. This is a really nice event, and it would be nice if the current supervisors could re-evaluate their decisions. We will keep the registrations open until tomorrow until 13:00. Send your registration directly to anders.kulseng@ift.uib.no. Otherwise, I hope you all had an active and nice weekend in the sun! Øyvind News and general information Reading lists We would like to remind you of the deadline for delivering the reading lists for the fall courses, which was on June 1. You can read the mail from Studia here, and here you can find the order forms. Keep in mind that the subjects and courses which do not deliver their reading lists on time will be listed on student’s own reading list overview. To this day, mat.nat. has delivered only 44 %, but physics and process and petroleum technology are sticking out even more with just 17 and 0 % respectively (!). Here you can read on how to upload the reading lists via Min Side. In case you have any problems uploading, feel free to ask for help from Irlin, Terje or Anders from the administration. Contingency plan for the UoB employees abroad At the meeting held on 10 April 2014, case 25/14, the University Council approved the contingency plan for UoB employees working abroad. The plan is a contribution to following up the employees abroad in case of possible emergency. Regarding this, we would like to remind all employees to: · Inform the nearest superiors and have their travel or stay abroad previously approved · Schedule and evaluate travel risks in accordance with the UoB’s travel policy Contingency plan for the UoB employees abroad can be viewed here. Seminar on plagiarism All are welcome to the Seminar on plagiarism Thursday, June 19, at 13:15 – 15:00 at seminar room , Realfagbygget, 4th floor. Both in order to contribute and develop a good culture for dealing with any suspicion of plagiarism, and to ensure a good handling of such cases at the faculty, we are organizing a seminar where we take up the following topic: What is plagiarism and in which cases should such suspicions be taken a step further? How should suspicions of plagiarism be dealt with at the department level? At this seminar, senior consultant from the University’s directorate, Per Gunnar Hillesøy, will talk about these topics. We will also discuss what the faculty should do in order to secure a good and uniform handling of such cases at the faculty. This seminar is aimed at all employee groups, but will have the main focus on the study administrative group and course leaders at the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences. Norgesuniversitet’s announcement of entrepreneurs’ funds for 2014 UoB would like to encourage the academic environments which see possibilities within this field to send applications to this fond. Check out the link below for more information: http://norgesuniversitetet.no/utlysninger/entreprenor2014 Applications from different academic areas can be sent directly to Norgesuniversitet, but we would like you to send a copy of your application to Tove Steinsland: Tove.Steinsland@adm.uib.no. This is in order to ensure that all applications from UoB would be included in the application package that UoB will send to Norgesuniversitet. Application deadline is 15 June 2014. Master Olav Anders Kvilhaug will hold a master thesis presentation in Reservoir physics of the following title: Polymer flooding - Flow properties of synthetic polymers in sandstones and comparison with rheological parameters Friday, May 30, at 09:15 at room 4060, Realfagbygget. His supervisors were Arne Skauge, CIPR and Tormod Skauge, CIPR. Bachelor 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 department’s Fagutvalget and is primarily aimed at department’s students – but the employees are also welcome!
