NEWS FROM THE DESK OF THE HEAD OF DEPARTMENT

September, what a month! Time for a new beginning! It’s the time when we restart our educational cycle after a well-deserved holiday period, during which other tasks have taken our focus. September is the month we welcome our new bachelor’s and master’s students and greet our returning students across various programs. It’s also a month when we initiate some of our annual administrative tasks, most notably the annual salary negotiations. Hopefully, September will also be the month when we finalize who needs to register their work time and how.

On a personal note, September marks the end of my first year as Head of the Department of BIO and the beginning of a new one. Recently, a colleague from another department asked if she should congratulate or condole me on my “new” position as Head of Department. Looking back, I have really enjoyed working closely with the employees of BIO and the diverse tasks of this role, so my immediate response was “Congratulate, off cause!” I wish to thank everyone for welcoming me as your Head of Department, and I look forward to our continued collaboration in the coming years.     

New vice head of department and head of section

Due to success with attracting large Horizon Europe grants consortium coordinator, Associate Professor Cejna Anna Quist-Jensen has resigned for the post of Vice Head of Department of Research. Associate Professor Mette Lübeck has agreed to step in as new Vice Head of Department of Research for the department and Associate Professor Morten Lykkegaard Christensen will take over the task as Head of Section for Section of Bioresources and Process Engineering. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Cejna for being a highly active and valuable member of the daily management of the department, albeit it only lasted for 10 months. Also, a warm welcome (or welcome back) to Mette and Morten in their new roles in the department management. I look forward to our continued collaboration.      

Time registration

Just before the initialization of working time registration in July the process was stalled, as it became unclear which employees at the universities should be considered self-organizers (without demand for working time registration) and who should be considered as not being self-organizers (with demand for time registration). This has now been clarified from the side of the university and the rules put forward are relatively simple:

VIP (e.g. research assistants, ph.d.-students, post.doc.´s, assistant professors, associate professors, professor and similar) are considered self-organizers (no requirement for time registration).

TAP (e.g. adm-TAP, lab-TAP, tech-TAP) are not considered self-organizers (time registration required). 

There are some gray areas as to whether some TAP employees may be considered self-organizers (e.g. consultants). This is currently under clarification.

I welcome that approximately 75% of the employees at BIO most likely will be excused from time registration and look forward to its realization. Nevertheless, it is unknown how bumpy the road to realization will be, as uniformity across the organization needs to be settled, as well as the outcome of the protests from various unions.

It is expected that time registration will start officially October 1´st. and it is my impression that time registration can be done easily and fast. As a matter of fact, AAU have registered work time for all employees since July 1´st, using each employees nominated working time.

Salary negotiations

September is also the month we initiate the annual salary negotiations, and all employees are invited to apply for salary improvements. You can find the procedure on the Annual salary negotiation website. Deadline for applications for salary improvements is September 15´th.

Salary improvements are given as either one-time payments or as qualification supplements. One-time payments are often given based on exceptional performance and contributions to the department, whereas qualification supplements are given based on positive changes in qualifications related to the specific job function of the individual.

Exceptional performance and contributions to the department can be exemplified with (not exhaustive):

  • Demonstration of excellent collaboration skills, leading to improvement of internal collaboration and work environment
  • Mentoring of junior staff and students, strengthening the academic environment
  • Taking responsibility for improving and implementing administrative processes
  • Development and implementation of new curricula and courses
  • Delivering high quality teaching
  • Publications in high-ranking journals
  • Securing significant research funds from external sources
  • Exceptional and groundbreaking research

I urge everyone to apply for a salary improvement, although it cannot be guaranteed that all requests can be met.

News on faculty management

The new faculty management is slowly being realized. Latest news is that Kasper Lynge Jensen has been appointed as the new Head of the Department of the Built Environment (BUILD) with place of employment in Aalborg. In addition, the hunt for a new dean has entered the selection phase and hopefully we can welcome a new head before the end of the year.

HELLE BLENDSTRUP 40 YEARS AT BIO

On August 20 we marked a special event at the Department of Chemistry and Bioscience. Helle Blendstrup has been a dedicated and invaluable part of our laboratories for 40 years! 

As a lab technician, Helle has been with us throughout the development of the department, following us across various locations. Her efforts and expertise have been a central part of our work, and her commitment has made a significant difference to both colleagues and students. At a festive reception, Helle was celebrated, and it was wonderful to see over 120 former and current colleagues come together to honor her long and loyal service. Thank you, Helle, for your 40 years of invaluable contributions to our laboratories and department! 

SUMMER SEMINAR 2024

The summer seminar brought together over 140 staff members for a day of inspiring presentations and discussions on key topics such as diversity, inclusion, unconscious bias, integration of generative AI in teaching, the department's global research impact, and the upcoming master's degree reform. Thank you to all participants for their engagement and valuable contributions!

The input received during the presentation on diversity and unconscious bias will be discussed at the next department council meeting in September. If you have any additional input regarding this presentation or the summer seminar in general, please feel free to contact Line Christensen Lykkebak at lch@bio.aau.dk

WHO'S WHO: COLLEAGUE SPOTLIGHT (ROBINSON EDITION)

In every newsletter, we try to create greater awareness between positions and individuals by asking a few questions so that we can all get to know the colleague better. We have asked student secretary Stefanie Nielsen, participant in this years Robinson expedition, a few questions, to get to know her more about her trip to Malaysia this spring.

Back in the spring, I secretly traveled to Malaysia after going through an extensive selection process with no less than 5,000 applicants! I went to Asia to participate in Denmark's largest and oldest reality show, Robinson Ekspeditionen 2024! 

The recordings took place in the eastern part of the Johor state in Malaysia.

Craziest experience:

At one point, I was on the brink of being eliminated from the expedition—one foot out, one foot in! An insanely intense situation, which you'll have to watch on TV to see how it turns out. It’s absolutely wild that, in an extreme state of hunger, I ended up eating sea urchin liver (that's when you know you’re really under pressure!!)

Where were you most challenged:

Definitely in missing my two little children, aged 5 and 3, back home—I often thought it wasn’t worth it, but I never gave up. The kids really pulled on me mentally and brought out some extreme emotions —on the other hand, I knew I would regret it if I gave up because of homesickness.

What is the most important thing you’ve learned during your participation?

As a person, I’ve always loved taking on physical challenges, and participating in Robinson Ekspeditionen has been on my list of ultimate goals for many years! So when I sent in my application back in December 2023, I had no idea what awaited me. It turned out to be an unforgettable adventure, offering time for deep life reflections, relationship-building across gender, age, and ethnicity, as well as a journey of new discovery and insight into myself as a person—some key elements I’ll carry with me in life.

I’ve learned so much more about myself and my core values, as well as what’s truly important to focus on to live a good and balanced life.

"To dare is to lose footing for a moment, not to dare is to lose oneself," was a Kierkegaard quote I kept in the back of my mind the whole time.

How far I got and how “the secretary from Chemistry and Bioscience” managed on a deserted island with extreme deprivation, minimal food, and a lot of waiting time in an extreme climate can be followed when the premiere airs on:

Research Stay in a villa in France?

It is possible to apply for research stays at ‘Direktør Ib Henriksens Fond’s villa in Castellaras-le-Vieux, South France. The villa has 5 bedrooms, and 3 bathrooms, and a typical stay is 3 weeks. Read more and apply here.

New travel expense report system at AAU, ERP Expense + increased focus in hotel payment

As previously announced, AAU have got a new travel expense report system, ERP Expense and RUS2 are being phased out. You can access the new system here

It is expected that all employees do their own expense report. There is of course always the possibility of getting help from the secretariat. Please note that all travel expense reports are expected to be made no later than 14 days after the end of the trip.

You can find instructions for ERP Expense here

In addition, checklists have been prepared that can be used when creating your expense report, so you can be sure that you have remembered everything in your expense report.

You can find the checklists for travel, outlays, and advances on our Intranet here

We must also point out that it is no longer possible to pay for hotel accommodation via EAN number, it must therefore be paid privately on the day of departure. It is possible to get it refunded on an expense report when you get home, but otherwise there is also the possibility to apply for an advance for it 14 days before departure, so that you already have the money in your account when you leave.

Travel insurance for 4+4 PhD students

Since we here at AAU have some clear rules for 4+4 PhD students in relation to travel insurance, we have prepared a guide that can help you on your way with what to do when you go on a trip and need a travel certificate.

The guide can be found on our Intranet here

NEWS FROM STUDIES

Expected student intake Fall 2024

We are beginning to get an overview of how many students will enroll in our BSc and MSc programs to coming semesters. As usual, we will not know the exact numbers before September 2 and 3, when the semesters begin. Students can still enroll, and from experience we know that probably not all the new students show up. The table below shows how many new students had accepted on Friday, August 23.

In Aalborg, 135 new students had accepted one of our BSc programs. This is 24 students less compared to last year and reflects that fewer students have enrolled in Chemistry, Environmental Science and Biology, while more have enrolled in Biotechnology. As a new initiative this year, our BEng students (diplomingeniør) will follow their own project theme in the 1st semester. We also expect 18 more new MSc students this year, also because of an increase in the number of new Biotechnology students.

In Esbjerg, we expect about the same number of new BSc students as last year, maybe a few less on the BSc program and a few more on the BEng program. However, on the MSc programs, we expect to see 3 times more new students (29 in total) this year as compared to last year.

All employees can follow the daily prognoses for student intake on https://www.okonomi.aau.dk/interne-noglet
