Special information for part-time teachers

SI is dedicated to ensuring the research basis and general quality of the teaching delivered by part-time teachers (DVIP) hired by the department. In order to do so a policy has been formulated. The policy is available here.

The department mainly hires part-time teachers to participate in classroom teaching based on the professional experience and qualifications of the part-time teacher. In some cases, part-time teachers are also used for supervision of projects on bachelor or master level.

All part-time teachers have a contact person in the department. The teaching coordinator Francesco Di Lorenzo (fdl.si@cbs.dk) is available for all requests. In addition, the course responsible is responsible for keeping the part-time teachers up to date on relevant requirements for the specific teaching activities at CBS.

The department will host a number of activities to make sure that the part-time teachers have access to knowledge and resources on teaching and research. They are:

Network event: In order to make sure that all part-time teachers are included in the department, they are invited for an annual networking event, where relevant topics within teaching and research are on the agenda. The event will take place in the 2nd part of May.
Development of teaching qualifications: All part-time teachers are offered the opportunity to take part in the courses of the Teaching & Learning unit of CBS (https://teach.cbs.dk/). Teaching courses (Learning to teach and Supervision of masters’ thesis) are only mandatory for part-time teachers with a contract for longer than 3 years. However, the courses are open to all and we encourage all part-time teachers to participate.
Open invitation to join department research seminars: All part-time teachers are welcome to join the events of the department. All part-time teachers are invited via Outlook. The list of seminars is also announced on this site.
