According to ST’s budget for 2017-2019 there will be a reduction in income in the order of about DKK 150 mill. in 2019 out of a turnover of approximately DKK 2.7 bill. The faculty must therefore explore the possibilities for increasing its income and reducing its costs. The dean would like to see proposals in this regard from section heads, LSU/Department Forum and all other staff.

 

In the Department of Agroecology we will hold a meeting about the topic in LSU/Department Forum on 3 March 2016. You are welcome to send your proposals for savings and increased income to your representative and/or Erik Steen Kristensen.

 

- I encourage everyone to send ideas to us even if they are sent anonymously, says Erik Steen Kristensen.

 

It is also possible to send your ideas electronically in a form that you can find here (in Danish but the English version will soon be available). If you do so, you are encouraged to send a copy to either Erik Steen Kristensen or your LSU representative.

 

The deadline for sending ideas is 15 March 2016. See the schedule for the process here.
