A one-day workshop, 16 fully financed PhD scholarships and up to 32 highly motivated candidates. That is the recipe for a whole new approach to PhD recruitment that the Graduate School at Health will be testing over the next two years.

Dear all

Please find the latest news:

From 1 November, it will be easier for the individual student to get an overview of their courses, exams and grades. The new study timeline at mystudies.au.dk provides an overview of the various elements of the individual student’s degree programme.

"Aarhus University must work to ensure that the decision to outsource always takes employees into consideration – and with an eye towards the best and most efficient solution for the university. The senior management team has adopted a strategy on competitive tendering of operations to support this aim," Arnold Boon writes on his blog.

To provide the university with a solid process for evaluating the pros and cons of outsourcing, AU has developed a strategy for the competitive tendering of business operations. At appropriate intervals, technical and administrative business operations must be evaluated, and their market valuation assessed. One aspect of the strategy is that affected employees must be treated with respect and consideration.

World Championship medallist Anne-Marie Rindom and the successful student entrepreneur company Emplate were just some of the students to whom AU paid tribute at an event held on Thursday, 25 October.

University Director Arnold Boon has sent out an email to all staff with guidelines for handling emails with personal data.
