Group B representatives - representatives of temporary staff in teaching and research positions:

Sondre Sæther Bolland

Proposed by: Nomination committee

I am a second-year fellow and have been working as a temporary employee
at the Department of Informatics for the past three years.

In the previous period, I was a representative for group B in the department council
and would like to run for election again.

The position provided a unique insight into how one of theuniversity’s units operates
administratively and politically. After this experience, I am equipped
to step into the position and promote the interests of my peers.

My door is always open, feel free to drop by!

Gr. D (students):

Joakim Anda Schanke

Proposed by: Nomination committee

Hi! I'm Joakim, originally from Stavanger, has a bachelor's in computer security
and is now doing a master's in optimization.

After 2 years on echo's executive board and Realistutvalget's board, I am looking
for new challenges. I want to contribute with what I have learned from my previous
positions to make II an even better place for the staff, the academic staff and the students. 

My main goals are to work for the students' interests and make Høytek an even better place to study informatics.

Kristian Elde Johansen

Proposed by: Nomination committee

 

Carl Didrik Torkildsen

Proposed by: Nomination committee

I am running for election because I want to contribute my own experiences to the department council.
Previously, I have been on the main board of echo. That has given me a lot of insight into the daily life of the institute
and the effort put in to make it as good as possible.
During that time, I have seen the importance of good communication between the students and the institute management.

This motivates me to take part in the work of the department council as a student representative.
