Description: 

The department’s 2014 strategy seminar
================================================================

The strategy seminar for the Department of Computer Science will be held at the Kisakallio sports institute in Lohja (www.kisakallio.fi) on 26-27 May 2014.

Registration ended on the 9th of May.

This time, each strategy workshop team has the same topic:
– Vision: What should the Department of Computer Science be like in 2020?
– Strategy: How do we proceed to that goal?

For the workshops to produce different suggestions, they will be grouped according to staff affiliations, so that everyone with similar work duties will be in the same group. If there are several possible workshops for some, they can select the one most suitable. Our foreign staff members are the exception: in order to form a strong enough international take on the vision and the strategy, all the foreigners attending the strategy seminar will be in the same group (regardless of their work duties). If one of the workshop groups is in danger of becoming very large, it can be divided into groups of more suitable size.

The workshop groups should meet at least once before the strategy seminar, to create a rough idea of the department's vision and strategy for the near future. After the registration period is at an end, the chairperson of each group will convene the group for preparing the strategy work. During the first day of the seminar, we will continue working with our groups, and during the second day, we will all come together to create our strategic plan for improving the department even further.
