All FASoS staff members are cordially invited to attend the launch of the strategic plan for FASoS in the Turnzaal on Wednesday 28 September, 12.15 – 14.00. Our new rector will be present when the faculty board introduces the new plan. Coffee, tea and lunch will be served. The annual research heidag will start at 14.00. Please register before Friday 16 September. The full programme can be downloaded.
The research heidag ‘An Age of Fracture? Discussing Today’s Challenges in an Interdisciplinary Perspective’ will bring together three interdisciplinary roundtable discussions dealing with some of the most urgent challenges that Europe and the world are facing today. In each panel, three or four FASoS colleagues from the different parts of the faculty (plus a moderator) will briefly introduce their perspectives on the topic (5 min max.). This is followed by a panel debate, and then a debate with the audience as well. This highly interactive format is meant to deepen our understanding of some of the most pressing societal issues from an interdisciplinary perspective, and to build new bridges between academic disciplines, research perspectives, and interpretations. For this part of the day you can register separately in the registration form.
We look forward to your presence!
On behalf of the Faculty Board,
Sophie Vanhoonacker
Dean
