Pedagogical qualification board

    To ensure an equal assessment of pedagogical proficiency at the different faculties, the Vice-Chancellor has decided on a joint university board to oversee qualifications for higher education teaching. The Board recommends a decision for appointment to the faculties, based on the experts' assessments.

    The Board consists of Deputy-Vice-Chancellor Cathrine Norberg (chair), two representatives per faculty and representatives of the three student unions.

    Faculty of Medicine:
    Associate Professor Aleksandra McGrath and Faculty subjects coordinator Anna Fahlgren

    Faculty of Social Sciences:
    Associate Dean Ann-Louise Silfver and Faculty subjects coordinator Nils Eriksson

    Faculty of Arts:
    Pro Dean Marlene Johansson Falck and Faculty subjects coordinator Ann-Catrine Eriksson

    Faculty of Science and Technology:
    Associate Dean Karolina Broman and Faculty subjects coordinator Susanne Vikström

    Student unions:
    One representative from each of the following student unions; Medical Sciences Student Union, Umeå Student Union and Umeå Student Union of Science and Technology

    Co-opted for the board is an expert in pedagogical matters and a secretarial function from the Centre for Teaching and Learning (UPL) as well as two appointed distinguished teachers designated by the chair. Co-opted when needed is an expert in employment matters from the Office for Human Resources.

    The mandate period is four years and the board assembles at least twice each semester.
