Staff at SV faculty can apply to use the faculty's consultation hours at LINK. To apply applicants need submit a simple online application. We ask that you familiarize yourself with the criteria before applying. The application must be approved by the head of studies at your unit. Please also contact EILIN before you apply if you would like help and guidance. See the calendar below for application deadlines.
Allocation model
The faculty's LINK hours are distributed according to three categories with different proceedings depending on the size of the projects:

Criteria for allocation
- contributes to active learning for students
- Faculty-wide projects in line with strategic goals
- Project is in line with the unit's strategy/annual plan
- Projects with particularly high utility value, experience-sharing value or reuse value (results, technologies, learning resources, pedagogy etc.) can be used by others.
- Projects with participants from multiple units
The criteria are ranked, and projects that meet more criteria will be prioritized over projects that meet fewer. If desired, with criteria 2 and 3, we can define thematic areas that are to be prioritized per year. In that case, the thematic areas must be identified and decided upon in consultation with the education leaders.
Apportioning of responsibilities
The units
- report major projects to EILIN as early as possible
- make internal prioritization of projects, and approves
- Project coordinator contacts EILIN for an initial consultation (can contact LINK directly if they do not wish to go via EILIN)
- Project coordinator applies to the faculty for time use
EILIN
- Clarifying needs: what can EILIN do, what do we need LINK for, are there other services we can use instead/as a supplement?
- Probe possibilities and clarifies time use (if desired)
- Assesses the assignment based on the above criteria and makes a recommendation to the dean of studies
Studiedekan
- Approval
