Recently we organized an online open department meeting in two sessions. The aim was to reach you a few interesting and general messages, concerning what’s up in our department. Thank you all for your digital presence and we don’t want to prove the absentees wrong, because you can consult the presentation and report.
All the reports and presentations of the most recent department councils are now also accessible for everyone on our GE37 SharePoint - Department Site. It gives a nice indication what’s going on and what’s decided in the department councils. And that backdoor politics is a House of Cards thing. |

During the open department meeting we introduced briefly our ATP Teams in our department, since we choose a more efficient team minded collaboration for specific topics. We would like to bring two new teams under the attention here.

Team Finance will happily help with all your financial administration (orders, billing, expense reports, follow-up projects,…). We’re letting go the idea of a fixed person of contact for either department budget issues or personal (project) budgets, from now on you can address your questions to de generic mailing address ge37_finance@ugent.be. Behind the scenes Elke Vergauwen (front officer) and Kathleen De Looze will organize and divide the work.
For a good jump start in financial wonderland, check the Finance 101 manual on our GE37 SharePoint - Department Site.
