Welcome Nilgun!

Hello everyone! My name is Nilgun, and I come to the Department of Chemistry from the Geophysical Institute on loan 40% while Torill is on leave. You can find me in her office (3A9c) on Mondays and Tuesday and Thursday afternoons, or you can reach me on TEAMS (55583734) or by email (nilgun.kulan@uib.no) anytime.

I started working at UiB – GFI five years ago as a research advisor and project manager of an EU – H2020 project called TRIATLAS. I have a PhD in Physical Oceanography and have been involved in research both as a researcher and an administrator. In my personal life, I have been fortunate enough to live in diverse environments in Turkey, Canada, Japan, and now, in Norway.

Looking forward to meeting you all!

Welcome Zeljana!

Hi everyone! My name is Zeljana, and I recently started my PhD in educational research at the department, with the supervision of Monica Jordheim and Anja Møgelvang Jacobsen. My background is in psychology, and after my master´s degree I started working as a research assistant in projects aimed at improving student integration and learning environment in higher education. As I was working with these projects it became clear that educational research was the field I wanted to work in, and I am very excited to pursue that work here at the department! Can’t wait to meet everyone!
