Employer panels

All programmes at the university are obliged to establish an employer panel as part of the increased dialogue with the university's immediate professional environment. As far as possible, the employer panel must reflect the labour markets in which the graduates are employed. Read more about the faculty's two employer panels below.

External Council

At the Faculty of Theology, the employer panel is called the External Council. The council covers the theology programmes and the Master's programme European Religious Roots. The External Council has between eight and 12 personally appointed members, all of whom represent employer interests or are graduates from the faculty and therefore have special prerequisites for engaging in an ongoing systematic dialogue about the content, profile, quality and relevance of the theological programmes.

  • Rector Jakob Stubgaard
  • Bishop Marianne Gaarden
  • Bishop Peter Skov Jakobsen
  • Parish priest and member of the National Association of Parish Councils Eva Holmegaard Larsen
  • Parish priest Henrik Bach
  • Cand.theol. and member of the Executive Board of the Danish Clergy Association Kristoffer Johannes Schmidt-Hansen
  • Publisher Henrik Brandt-Pedersen
  • Rector Birgitte Stoklund Larsen
  • Bishop Thomas Reinholdt Rasmussen
  • Author Hanna Ziadeh

The dean, vice-dean, and head of studies participate regularly in council meetings with the faculty director as rapporteur.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The External Council at the Faculty of Theology is primarily tasked with advising the faculty in the work of evaluating and further developing the bachelor's programme, master's programme and continuing education in theology, but is also expected to take a constructively critical approach to the faculty's overall activities.

The Council is consulted in connection with all new educational initiatives at the faculty and is involved in the preparation of new curricula and significant curriculum changes.

The Council is normally convened twice a year for meetings chaired by the dean or vice-dean. At least once a year, a joint meeting is held for the Academic Council and the External Council.

Summary minutes of the Council's proceedings are prepared and circulated.

Members of the External Council are appointed for a three-year term. Reappointment is possible, but no member may be a member of the Council for more than three consecutive periods.

There is no remuneration for the work of the External Council. Travel expenses and, in special cases, subsistence expenses are reimbursed in accordance with applicable rules.
