In June 2022, LUCSUS will co-organise a 5-day intensive PhD course focusing on climate change mitigation and the politics of 'Net Zero' and carbon removal. As the climate crisis intensifies, the scientific and political conversation on climate change mitigation is taking novel forms, giving rise to a range of possible new climate futures. An increasingly important aspect of this is the ambition, a

Lund University has collected the top research of the university's twelve strategic reseach environments in a new book. MERGE is one of these environments. In 2008, the Swedish Government designated 20 ‘Strategic Research Areas’ (SRAs) in its research-policy bill. Within these 20 areas, 43 research environments were chosen for specific funding in a special evaluation in 2009. They were all conduct

The role of a research administrator can look very different. For Lisette Jelivi, the focus is more on administration and less on finances. "I really enjoy my work, it's incredibly varied," she says. What does a research administrator do? "I support researchers, heads of divisions and the 74 doctoral students in "my" departments. It can be anything from handling incoming invoices in Lupin, study a

Two issues that have taken up a relatively large part of my time since I became pro vice-chancellor five years ago are the management of research data and IT security. Both were areas in which LU did not really live up to the expectations of a top 100 university. There are, naturally, many points of contact between the areas, and both require a larger element of university-wide solutions than what

This autumn, LU Estates and Akademiska Hus will measure how much certain premises rented by the University are actually used. The measurements will be conducted by sensors placed at the entrances and exits to some offices and in lecture halls. The aim is to improve efficiency and reduce the need for premises. Digitalisation and the increase in working from home have led to offices being used less
