Instructions for your inaugural lecture
In connection with your conferment ceremony to honorary doctorate, you must give an inaugural lecture on Thursday, the day before the ceremony. Here you can read about what applies to your lecture.
Inaugural lecture, 9 October
As a new honorary doctor, you will hold an inaugural lecture at Campus Östersund on 9 October. The inaugural lectures will be broadcast live via YouTube for those who cannot attend on site. Here you will find the schedule for the day and what time your lecture is scheduled: Schedule installation lectures
Instructions for the installation lecture:
The lecture should be 15 minutes long. After that, 5 minutes are set aside for questions and comments from the audience.
- Assume that the audience is not familiar with what you are going to talk about. Therefore, plan the lecture on a light-hearted level without going too deep into details.
- Put a lot of emphasis on the setting and try to make your lecture personal, for example by describing your career and how you got to where you are today.
- For inspiration, feel free to check out previous years' installation lectures.
If you are going to show a slide show during your lecture, you need to hand it in in advance so that we can put it on the computer in the lecture hall. If you're making your slideshow on a Mac, let us know because we'll need to compress it.
Please send the slideshow to akademiskhogtid@miun.se by September 5th. Note that you can't make changes to the slideshow after you submit it.
Please contact akademiskhogtid@miun.se if you have questions or concerns regarding your lecture.
