For employees and students at the Faculty of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering. 

We would like to welcome employees and students at the faculty to weekly webinars! The purpose of this webinar series is to stimulate academic and free discussions on important topics in research, innovation and education, and also to provide a team- and culture-building arena at the IE Faculty. 

• When: Fridays 08.30-09.00 (with some exceptions).
• Where: Teams

Invitations to the talks are sent through Outlook. Links to the webinars are also found in the Innsida post about each talk. 

The scientific committee: 
Vice Dean for Education Roger Midtstraum
 

Talks are coordinated by the Friday talk coordinator, Berit Myhre.

We encourage all employees and the departments at the faculty to report contributions (topic, speaker and time) to the coordinator or other members of the advisory group.
