DION annual general meeting (AGM) and election of the new board – Gjøvik campus

Posted on by Fereshteh Mirjalili

It’s about the time for this year’s AGM. A new board will be elected during the AGM on April 18, 2023. The new board will consist of 5 to 8 members, who will serve for 8 months until December 31, 2023.

We encourage all PhD candidates, postdocs and temporary scientific employees from campus Gjøvik to consider joining the board. It is also possible to step forward as a candidate during the AGM. This is a great opportunity to influence the work situation of temporary academic staff and get insights into how the university works.

We gather in Kobalt K109 to listen to the candidates introducing themselves, and have some pizza and soft drinks afterwards. We would be grateful if you could let us know if you could join the meeting (as a candidate or not!) by filling out this form:
