Teach-group chairs the meeting.

Agenda:

  • Dave Sands recently turned 50 so we start the meeting with cake!
  • Discussion points from a full time teachers view:
    • Organization of undergraduate courses/teaching
      • Many involved: PA, VP, Ana, as a full time teacher it's often hard to get an overview. What's going on?Organizational changes?
    • Employability
      • After 3 years the students should be employable. The progress in the area is very high. Also affects introductory courses. What do we mean by employable? How to handle?
  • Short status report by Patrik (see also more information below)
    • ST positions
    • ST reorganization

I picked the meeting time to avoid clashes with the courses in SP4.
