Mobilitet och mottagande hanterar uppgifter som rör in- och utresande studenter samt service för universitetets svenska och internationella studenter. Vi koordinerar mobilitet via Lunds universitets gemensamma utbytesavtal, inklusive University of California, och den gemensamma mottagningen för inresande internationella studenter. I mobilitetsarbetet ingår också ansvar för mobilitetsdatabaser, StuMobility and Student Experience works with tasks related to student mobility and services for Swedish and international students at Lund University. We coordinate the student mobility on the university wide agreements, including University of California, as well as the arrival and orientation programme for all incoming international students at the university. Included in the tasks related to mobi

The end of the Multi-Fiber Agreement in January 2005 meant that quantitative restrictions within the textile and clothing industry were to be abolished. Quantitative restrictions had been used on the export of goods from low-wage countries which threatened producers in developed countries. With the end of the MFA the world market is significantly more accessible for textile and clothing producers

Health economics, as an interdisciplinary science, has experienced exceptionally bold evolution through the past eight decades. Generations of committed scholars have built up huge body of knowledge and developed a set of methodological tools to assist health-care authorities with resource allocation process. Following its conception at the US National Bureau of Economic Research and Ivy League US

The Swedish Arctic Ocean-96 expedition arranged by the Swedish Polar Research Committee took place during 1996 with the Swedish icebreaker M/S Oden. The expedition focused on studying the distribution of radionuclides in different water masses in the central Arctic Ocean. The expedition crossed the Barents Sea, entered the Nansen Basin at the St. Anna Trough, and continued north across the Amundse

The Arctic Ocean expedition in 1991 with the Swedish icebreaker M/S Oden was focused on oceanography and geology. The aim of our project was exploring the activity concentrations in surface air of 7Be, 210Pb. and 210Po in the surface air, radioactive isotopes of Caesium (134Cs, 137Cs) and plutonium (239+240Pu) in seawater. During the cruise in the Arctic Ocean during 1991-07-28 to 1991-10-04 the a

Existing studies on the relationship between the insurance market and economic development tend to use empirical methods that rely on the unrealistic assumption of cross-sectional independence. This thesis aims to highlight the drawbacks of this assumption. The results are achieved by comparing the results of the Common Correlated Effects (CCE) model to the two-way fixed effects model as well as t

In this essay I try to sort out whether or not the welfare state is being challenged. My theoretical approach is based on the assumption that there has been a shift in the state-market relationship; the market has gained influence, while the state has lost influence. I approach the issue by examining and comparing the international and the Swedish academic debate on whether or not the welfare stat

Purpose: With our study we aim to uncover the gendered nature of personal branding by exploring the phenomenon from women’s perspectives. Theoretical Framework: Our study draws on theory from scholarly literature on gender in organizations and personal branding as well as on popular personal branding literature. Methodology: Locating our qualitative research in the interpretive and critical femini

The three electromagnetic form factors for the transition from a 3/2+Σ∗ hyperon to the ground-state Λ hyperon are studied. At low energies, combinations of the transition form factors can be deduced from Dalitz decays of the Σ∗ hyperon to Λ plus an electron-positron pair. It is pointed out how more information can be obtained with the help of the self-analyzing weak decay of the Λ. In particular,

The El Niño - Southern Oscillation (ENSO) influences the global climate and the variability in the terrestrial carbon cycle on interannual timescales. Two different expressions of El Niño have recently been identified: (i) central Pacific (CP) and (ii) eastern Pacific (EP). Both types of El Niño are characterised by above-average sea surface temperature anomalies at the respective locations. Studi

Visioner och framtidsbilder efterfrågas ofta för att motivera och inspirera till samhälleliga förändringar. Sådana visioner kan bygga på politisk förändring eller måla upp bilder av teknisk utveckling som hjälper oss att lösa svåra samhälleliga problem. Den typen av visioner är kanske speciellt viktiga när vi strävar efter en hållbar utveckling, och framför allt ifall vi vill motverka att jordens Different kinds of representations of the future are often asked for in order to motivate and inspire societal change. These envisioned futures can be based on political or behavioural change, or may visualize technical developmentwhich could help us solve complex societal problems. The latter type of epresentation is especially important if we aim for sustainable development, and even more so if

The value problem for knowledge is the problem of explaining why knowledge is more valuable than mere true belief. The problem arises for reliabilism in particular, i.e., the externalist view that knowledge amounts to reliably acquired true belief. Goldman and Olsson argue that knowledge, in this sense, is more valuable than mere true belief due to the higher likelihood of future true beliefs (pro

Abstract in UndeterminedObjective To investigate acute posttraumatic reactions and forms of coping to the September 11 attack. Method A Web TV nationwide, representative sample of individuals 13 years or older (N=3134) was evaluated within three weeks of the attack. Measures included the SASRQ, the brief version of the COPE, and questions about demographics and attitudes toward the attackers. Resu
