The PhD student council at the Faculty of Science and Technology (TNDR) will hold elections for representatives and board members for the academic year July 2019 - June 2020 at the annual meeting on the 13th of June. The main objective of TNDR is to monitor and pursue any issues regarding the rights and concerns of the PhD students of the faculty. TNDR has student representatives at both university-level and faculty-level boards and committees which are the decision making bodies within the university.
You are welcome to apply for TNDR positions, in total it’s approximately 35 positions to fill in! Please use the link or contact the election committee in this working year: Johann Schmidt johann.schmidt@physics.uu.se and Mohsen Bazargan mohsen.bazargan@geo.uu.se.
The board meeting in June is perhaps the last TNDR Board meeting in this study year. The board will brainstorm such important issues like TNDR grant rules and the budget report for the next year and next board. Current board members will be most likely partially or even fully replaced by a fresh board, elected on 13th of June. Don't miss your chance to apply for positions and participate in TekNat's PhD student life!
The TNDR Board discussed the issues, that representatives of PhD students encounter during their sessions with the unions/organizations. It's not an easy task to be a representative, but definetly a great opportunity to know more about issues and narrow spots of the PhD life. An important topic on "Chapter and Code", currently introduced at Uppsala University was discussed. More on the meeting see in Scanned minutes!
