Heating switched off
Work on the district heating network is being carried out between the A Building and the Kårallen Building on Campus Valla. The work means that the district heating will be switched off 12-14 June. Then the A, C and Kårallen Buildings will not have any hot water or heating. The system must be switched off as the new district heating piping is connected to the network. Questions? Contact Akademiska Hus: Johan Tjäder 013-364539 or Martin Ekdahl 013-364516.
Courses in supercomputer programming oversubscribed
The most powerful supercomputer in the Nordic region, Tetralith, will provide additional computing power for students taking LiU’s popular courses in parallel programming. This is vital knowledge for those who want to lead the field, says Jakob Bertlin, who is taking a master’s degree in engineering, specialising in media technology.
Inside LiU News
Network to support new staff
A good support network can be a decisive factor when it comes to choosing a university to work at. LiU has long had an informal network for supporting new international employees, which has now been formalised.
Peace and quiet in Stellenbosch
Could you use a few months’ peace and quiet to write a book or research report? Or maybe you want to get down to planning a new project? If so, Stellenbosch in South Africa may be what you’re looking for – LiU researchers can stay there free of charge, financed by two Wallenberg foundations.
New guidelines for information security
All co-workers are expected to acquaint themselves with the new guidelines for information security and to follow them, in order to ensure high security at the university.
Updated LiU presentations
The basic PowerPoint and Keynote presentation about Linköping University have been updated with figures from the latest annual report and new photos. If you are giving a presentation about LiU, use the new material, which exists both in English and Swedish.
Dialogues that became signposts
This winter, the Vice-Chancellor invited for the first time co-workers to strategy dialogues. With hindsight, we can say that the dialogues fully satisfied the purpose that the university management had been hoping for.
