Why become a Steering Board member?
The Future Faculty Steering Board meets ten times a year to organize events for our members, support our task forces (e.g., the annual retreat, the Minerva award and the VR starting grant support program), and discuss ongoing work in other boards where we have a Future Faculty representative (e.g., the Faculty of Medicine board, the Docent committee and the Swedish National Junior Faculty). As a Steering Board member, you provide a valuable service for your fellow Future Faculty members and have the opportunity to influence broader faculty decisions. You get an inside view into how decisions are made at the Faculty of Medicine and learn more about the organization and function of Lund University and Swedish academia generally.
What’s next?
After the nominations are collected, all Future Faculty members will be invited to vote in the election, which is scheduled to happen in May. The new steering board will meet in June to elect a chair and vice-chair for the coming term. Other tasks on the board will be divided during a kick-off meeting in August.
