Förberedelser pågår för implementering av det digitala ISP-systemet på samtliga institutioner
|
|
Det nya digitala systemet för individuella studieplaner, ISP-systemet, har nu testats och implementerats på fyra pilotinstitutioner. Under hösten kommer övriga institutioner succesivt att börja använda systemet, en institutionsgrupp i taget. Det innebär att samtliga nyantagna doktorander inom kort kommer att skapa digitala individuella studieplaner tillsammans med sin handledare i ISP-systemet.
Under hösten kommer varje berörd institution bli kontaktad i god tid. Utbildning, i huvudsak digital, kommer att erbjudas administratörer för forskarutbildning, studierektorer, handledare och doktorander.

Konsekvenser av COVID-19-pandemin på KI:s forskarutbildning
|
|
Informationen avseende konsekvenser av COVID-19-pandemin på KI:s forskarutbildning på medarbetarportalen uppdateras löpande.
Även under höstterminen kommer teoretiska forskarutbildningskurser att genomföras på distans, med några få undantag, medan praktiska kurser/kursmoment är prioriterade att genomföras i KI:s lokaler. Om det inte är möjligt att upprätthålla fysisk distans kommer munskydd att delas ut. Information ges av respektive kursgivare inför kursstart.
Avseende disputationer gäller, tills annat meddelas, att doktorand, opponent, betygsnämnd, handledare och disputationsordförande kan delta på distans efter kontakt med KI:s disputationskommitté och att disputationer ska tillgängliggöras via webbsändningar.

Utlysning av forskar-AT-medel
|
|
Forskar-AT är en möjlighet att få finansierad forskningstid under AT-utbildningen. Forskar-AT kan sökas både av doktorander på KI och av disputerade som har en aktiv forskningsverksamhet vid KI.
Ansök senast torsdag den 10 september 2020

Avonova Hälsa – ny samarbetspartner för arbetsmiljö & hälsa
|
|
KI har en ny leverantör inom området företagshälsa. Avonova Hälsa, som ersätter Previa, kan leverera tjänster som är:
| • | promotiva – stärker det friska (t.ex. rådgivning och utbildningar) | | • | preventiva – förebygger ohälsa (t.ex. vaccinationer och lagstadgade medicinska kontroller) | | • | efterhjälpande – t.ex. samtalsstöd och aktiviteter inom området arbetslivsinriktad rehabilitering |
Vissa tjänster kan du som är anställd eller doktorand (KI-anställd eller stipendiefinansierad) avropa (boka) själv och vissa tjänster är det närmsta chef som avropar.

Welcoming the new Doctoral Students’ Ombudsperson!
|
|
Ninna Oom is the new Doctoral Students’ Ombudsperson (DO) at MF and works closely with the DSA. The DSA welcomes her to the KI family!
Ninna Oom worked as a dancer for ten years, then found her new calling in the academic world through social anthropology. Her studies led to her working as a research assistant at the democracy institute, International IDEA, taking on the mission as an Ecumenical Accompanier in Palestine and Israel. Her work with children and families, nurtured her skills in conflict management.
In her role as the Doctoral Students’ Ombudsperson, Ninna is looking forward to supporting doctoral students at KI, while at the same time collaborating with faculty. She is prepared to listen carefully and assist students going through different circumstances during their doctoral studies. Her door will always be open!

FORSKARUTBILDNING PÅ WEBBEN
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Doktorandnytt riktar sig till framförallt till doktorander. Syftet är att informera om nyheter och praktiska detaljer som rör KI:s forskarutbildning.
Doktorandnytt skickas ut ungefär var femte vecka från Fakultetskansliet på Karolinska Institutet.
Redaktör: Clara Ersson
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Primary target groups for Doctoral student news are doctoral students as well as the departmental directors for doctoral studies and administrative officers for doctoral education. These groups receive the letter automatically. Other interested groups (for example doctoral supervisors) can subscribe to the newsletter at the staff portal.
|
|
|
|
Preparation for implementation of the digital ISP system at all departments
|
|
The new digital system for individual study plans, the ISP system, has been tested and implemented at four departments. During the autumn, the remaining departments will start using the system gradually – one departmental group at a time. This means that all newly admitted doctoral students soon will create digital individual study plans together with their supervisor in the ISP system.
Every department will be contacted later this autumn. Training, mainly digital, will be offered to administrators for doctoral education, directors for doctoral studies, supervisors and doctoral students.
More information about the digital ISP system
|
Consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic on KI’s doctoral education
|
|
Information regarding consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic on KI’s doctoral education on the staff portal is updated continuously.
During the autumn semester theoretical doctoral courses will be given online, with a few exceptions, while practical courses/course modules are prioritized to be held at campus. If it is not possible to maintain physical distance, face masks will be distributed. Information is provided by each course leader before the start of the course.
Regarding public defences the following applies until further notice: The doctoral student, opponent, examination board, supervisor and defence chairperson can participate online after informing the Dissertation committee, and the public defence must be accessible to the public via web casts.
