Recruitment advertisements (publication of advertisements) will be closed for the summer from 13 July to 5 August. The last day for requesting publication is Monday 11 July. Remember to also extend any ads that expire during that period. 

To ensure that ads are published and extended in time, submit a request for publication at least three business days in advance.

IT support is open all summer, but with a slightly lower service level due to lower staffing.

Signature from the Head of School during the summer

Between weeks 26-32 the school's office goes on holiday, which means that answers and signatures may be delayed. We will do our best to handle the cases that come in.

As usual, matters are sent electronically to the Head of School (including the cover page). Original documents sent by internal mail cannot be guaranteed an immediate signature. Every week a head of school will be on call, which means that he or she will handle the cases.

Contracts that will require legal review and signature via RSO before and during the summer

During the summer the Research Support Office (RSO) is not fully staffed. This means cases will take longer to address. Already ongoing cases will continue to be handled according to their deadlines and new cases received during the summer will be started if the management at the schools confirms the case as urgent or prioritised.

In order to give students , our fellow workers and the public the very best service, KTH Switchboard asks you to encode your extensions when you're not able to take your calls.

Also, remember to add an auto-reply to your e-mail.
