Hello! My name is María Fernández and I come from Vigo, a city located in the north of Spain and famous for its fishing industry. I just started as a postdoctoral researcher in the Environmental Toxicology group, as a part of the ToxiGen project.

In the spring of 2023, the Education Committee [Utdanningsutvalget] set up a working group which was tasked with preparing a proposal for a revised quality system for education at UiB. The proposal has now been completed, and the faculty has been asked to provide input to the text, and to the accompanying guidelines.
We ask that you send any input to me by March 1. This will also be an issue at the meeting with education leaders on 29 February.

The county governor of Vestland (Statsforvaltaren i Vestland) hereby submits a proposal for consultation on boundary adjustment for the Hestad landscape conservation area. The background for the border adjustment is that it may seem unclear where the borders go and that there is a need to clarify these. The proposal involves minor changes in relation to the boundaries that are known as current boundaries today (Naturbasen)

All groups [faggrupper] have been given a task to go through the course portfolio. We will consider many things: Is each course still relevant? Updated? Do the course and learning outcome descriptions describe the course well? Is the number of places on the course reasonable? Is there academic overlap with other courses, and if so, could we collaborate across group boundaries? And finally, is the course portfolio in line with the personnel resources in the group now and in a five-year perspective?
BioCEED is inviting you to celebrate our 10-year anniversary in the University Aula March 6, at 12:00-17:00.
