A warm welcome to CBH School's Christmas party!

This year, CBH's Christmas party will be held on two occasions, and you are welcome to attend whichever one you prefer – or both!

We will be serving mulled wine and snacks, and Head of School Amelie Eriksson Karlström will summarise the past year and give a brief presentation of what is happening at the school. She hopes that many of you will stay and mingle with new and old colleagues!

8 December, Teknikringen 30: 2.30 p.m. in the staff cafeteria on floor 6

12 December, KTH Flemingsberg: 3 p.m. in the staff cafeteria on floor 7

KTH has participated in a survey that tracks how university teaching is valued in academic careers. The survey is led by Dr. Ruth Graham, who will present the results and engage in a dialogue on how KTH can further improve in acknowledging teaching proficiency and further develop our education.

The master’s programme in Technology, Work and Health at KTH is now the first degree programme in Sweden to be accredited for IOSH membership. The Institution of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH) is a chartered body for health and safety professionals, with more than 50,000 members across over 130 countries. This recognition means that graduates of the programme will be acknowledged worldwide as having met IOSH standards for professional competence in occupational safety and health.

The next step in the development of KTH's University Administration, UA, is that staff in HR, finance and communication will be co-organized within each area from the first of April 2024. This is one of several points decided by the President in an orientation decision on how UA will be organized in the future.

The CBH School works actively for a sustainable development on several levels. Our research and education contribute to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, we have an environmental management system and is a workplace that strives for increased sustainability in our daily processes.

Every week the CBH School's newsletter is published. Here you can read about important information, news articles, exciting activities and new interviews with colleagues.
