Rektors tale ved doktorpromosjonen
18. november 2016
Kjære nye doktorer og æresdoktorer, kjære gjester, kjære kolleger og venner.
I dag feirer vi at 180 nye doktorer er kreert ved NTNU. Med dette sender vi 180
nye bidrag til å realisere visjonen Kunnskap for en bedre verden, ut i samfunnet.
Regjeringen har gitt oss noen klare føringer: Vi skal blir mer internasjonale. Og
det er bra, for vi må og skal bidra. Enda flere studenter og forskere skal reise ut,
enda flere skal komme hit. Og studentene skal gjennomføre det de har begynt på.
Gunnar Bovim
Rektor
Våre doktorander leverer!
Doktorutdanningen ved NTNU er internasjonalisering. Blant de som i dag kreeres,
er hele 30 nasjoner representert! Og mange av våre norske doktorander, har bak seg et opphold ved
universiteter eller forskningsinstitusjoner i utlandet. Slik må det være. Forskningen er global, det samme
er utdanningen. Skal vi være med i kunnskapsutviklingen, må det skje gjennom internasjonalt samarbeid.
Straks vil dere motta doktordiplomet som et håndfast bevis på det dere har oppnådd. Det handler om
ambisjoner, det handler om hardt arbeid, det handler om å ha et mål og om aldri å slippe det målet av
syne. Som det ble skrevet i stein allerede i 1910; hvis dere ser over inngangen til biblioteket: Per aspera ad
astra – gjennom motgang til stjernene.
Den kunnskapen dere har tilegnet dere, kan gjøre en forskjell. Den kan skape en bedre verden.
Slik Åsmund Flobak i sin forskning har funnet en metode for å kunne skreddersy kreftbehandling for den
enkelte pasient. Det er et viktig funn for å få best mulig effekt og minst mulig bivirkninger av medisinen.
Og slik Kaspar Vereide i sitt arbeid har jobbet med å finne nye løsninger for å forbedre fleksibiliteten
6
og kapasiteten i eksisterende vannkraftverk. Dette kan bidra til at norsk vannkraft blir Europas grønne
batteri.
Mange andre av dere skulle også vært nevnt, som både har og vil bidra med Kunnskap for en bedre verden.
I det store bildet: I en verden preget av konflikter, fremmedfrykt og menneskerettigheter under press, er
kunnskap om språk, kultur, religion og historie et fundament, ikke bare for å forstå, men også for å løse
de utfordringene verden står overfor. Humanistisk forskning og utdanning har en stadig viktigere oppgave;
uten den forvitrer vår selvforståelse og innsikten i vår kulturelle og demokratiske arv. Sammen med vår
teknologiske kunnskap gir også humanistisk forskning en helhet og en breddekunnskap som samfunnet
trenger.
Statsbudsjettet for kommende år er et godt budsjett for å fremme forskning. Vi tolker det slik at nasjonen
stoler på oss, på at vi leverer. Og vi stoler på dere!
Å investere i forskning er ekstra viktig i krevende tider. Det ligger en politisk erkjennelse av nettopp det
i dette budsjettet – og dermed også en politisk forpliktelse. Det betyr ikke at alt skal gjennomføres i
morgen. Tvert imot; vi skal også drive den grunnforskningen som ikke har et kjent, kortsiktig utbytte, men
som bygger kunnskap og kompetanse som strekker seg over lang tid.
Samtidig er vi en krevende periode på NTNU med effektivisering og utvikling av de administrative tjenestene. Det gjøres et godt arbeid som jeg er sikker på vil bidra til bedre faglige resultater og høyere kvalitet.
Å holde høy internasjonal standard er viktig for oss. Vi skal levere forskning og undervisning som på en
rekke områder kan konkurrere med de beste internasjonalt. Da kan vi ikke et øyeblikk senke på kravene
til kvalitet.
Men vi skal levere mer enn det. Studentene som går ut fra oss, skal være kjennetegnet med følgende: De
skal ha solid kunnskap om faget sitt. De skal være mer nysgjerrige enn da de begynte hos oss. Og de skal
ha gode verdier.
7
Det gjelder også dere! NTNU har noen grunnverdier som vi står for. Blant dem er respektfull og omtenksom. Vi skal tørre å stå opp for de verdiene. Vi skal forlange at ulike fagtradisjoner møtes med respekt.
Vi skal utfordre hverandre, bryne argumenter og heie på meningsulikhet.
En av de viktige debattene som har gått denne høsten, handler om forskningsetikk. NTNU blir utfordret i
den debatten. Det er bra!
Det er flere baktepper:
Regjeringen leverte i høst en proposisjon til Stortinget, med forslag til ny lov om forskningsetikk. Loven
understreker forskningsinstitusjonenes og den enkelte forskers selvstendige ansvar.
Tidligere i år kom det også nye retningslinjer for teknologi og naturvitenskap, som gir normer for god
forskningsetikk.
Når det gjelder internasjonalt samarbeid, er det en kontinuerlig strøm av dilemma: Vi samarbeider med
Kina – som bryter menneskerettighetene. Med USA, som praktiserer dødsstraff. Med Sør-Afrika, som nylig
har slått brutalt ned på studentopprør. Det er mange land i verden som har estiske utfordringer. Men det
kan ikke ene og alene være styrende for våre relasjoner. Vårt primære standpunkt må alltid være at dialog
og samarbeid er et gode. Fordi samarbeid om forskning og utdanning bygger broer mellom mennesker og
akademisk samarbeid har en grunnleggende demokratisk effekt.
Forskningsetikk er ikke enkelt, og vi har ikke alle svarene. Svarene har sjelden to streker under. Og riktig
svar i dag, kan være feil svar om et år. Jeg tror det nærmeste jeg kommer en sannhet, er at der det er etisk
komplisert å forske, er det også etisk komplisert å ikke forske.
Ta med den etiske refleksjonen ut i det arbeidslivet dere nå skal ut i , enten dere fortsetter karrieren innen
forskning, eller går ut i offentlig sektor eller det private næringslivet. Det er også et bidrag til kunnskap
for en bedre verden.
8
Doktorpromosjonen markerer endt utdanning ved NTNU. Det betyr ikke at båndene til NTNU kuttes fra i
dag. Tvert imot; vi ser på dere som våre ambassadører og en viktig del av vårt nasjonale og internasjonale
nettverk. Jeg møter ofte NTNU alumner både i inn- og utland, og jeg håper også å treffe dere igjen i den
rollen.
Gratulerer hver og en og lykke til videre. Uansett hvor veien går herfra; fortsett med å skape Kunnskap for
en bedre verden.

The Rector’s speech at the Doctoral Degree
Awards Ceremony, 18 November, 2016
To our new doctoral graduates and honorary doctors, our guests, colleagues
and friends.
Today, we are celebrating 180 new doctoral graduates from NTNU. With this, we
are sending out into society 180 new contributions towards fulfilling our vision:
Knowledge for a Better World.
Gunnar Bovim
Rector
The Government has given us clear guidelines: We must become more international. And that’s good, because we can and we must contribute. Even more
students and researchers must travel out into the world. Even more must come
here. And students must complete what they have started.
Our doctoral candidates deliver!
Doctoral education at NTNU is internationalization. Today’s doctoral graduates represent 30 countries.
And many of our Norwegian PhDs have completed a period at universities or research institutions
abroad. That is the way it must be. Research is global, and so is education. If we are going to participate
in the development of knowledge, this must take place through international collaboration.
Soon you will receive your doctoral diploma as tangible evidence of what you have achieved. It’s about
ambitions, it’s about hard work, it’s about having a goal and never letting that goal slip out of sight. As it
was carved in stone way back in 1910; If you look above the entrance to the library: Per aspera ad astra
– through difficulties to the stars.
The knowledge you have gained can make a difference. It can create a better world.
10
In his research, Åsmund Flobak has found a way to personalize cancer treatment for the individual
patient. This is an important discovery for achieving the best possible effects of the medicine, with as few
side effects as possible.
Kaspar Vereide has searched for new solutions to improve the flexibility and capacity of existing hydropower plants. This could help to make Norwegian hydropower the “green battery” of Europe.
Many more of you should also have been mentioned, who have contributed and who want to contribute
Knowledge for a Better World.
Looking at the bigger picture: In a world marked by conflicts, xenophobia and human rights under
pressure, we need the foundation that knowledge of language, culture, religion and history provides, not
only for understanding, but also for solving the challenges facing the world. Research and education in
the humanities have an ever-more important mission; without them, our understanding of ourselves and
our insight into our cultural and democratic heritage will crumble away. Combined with our technological
knowledge, research in the humanities provides an all-round perspective and a breadth of knowledge that
society needs.
Norway’s National Budget for the year ahead is a good budget for promoting research. We read it as a
signal that the nation trusts us, that we deliver. And we rely on you!
Investing in research is especially important in challenging times. This budget represents political
recognition of exactly that – and so it is also a political commitment. This does not mean everything
must be carried out tomorrow. On the contrary, we must also conduct the basic research that has no
known dividend in the short term, but that builds knowledge and expertise that last for the long term.
At the same time, we are in a demanding period at NTNU with efficiency measures and development
of the administrative services. Excellent work is under way, which I am convinced will contribute to
improved academic results and higher quality.
11
Maintaining a high international standard is important for us. We must deliver research and teaching that
can compete with the world’s best in a variety of fields. So we cannot let our demands for quality slip for
a single moment.
But we must deliver more than that. Students who graduate from our university must have the following
characteristics: They must have solid knowledge of their subject. Their curiosity must be greater than it
was when they started here. And they must have good values.
The same applies to you! NTNU has some fundamental values that we stand for. They include respect
and thoughtfulness. We must dare to stand up for these values. We must insist that different academic
traditions are met with respect. We must challenge each other, hone our arguments and applaud differences of opinion.
One of the most important debates of this autumn relates to research ethics. NTNU is being challenged in
this debate. This is good!
The background has several dimensions:
In autumn, the Government submitted a parliamentary bill to the Storting, with a proposal for a new law on
research ethics. The legislation emphasizes the independent responsibility of the research institutions and
the individual researcher.
Earlier this year, new guidelines were also launched for technology and the natural sciences, which provide
standards for sound research ethics.
And international collaboration generates a continuous stream of dilemmas: We are working together with
China – which violates human rights. With USA, which practises capital punishment. With South Africa,
with its recent brutal crackdown on student protests. Many countries in the world face ethical challenges.
But this fact in isolation cannot govern our relationships. Our primary standpoint must always be that
12
dialogue and cooperation are an advantage. Because teamwork in research and education builds bridges
between people, and academic cooperation has a fundamental democratic effect.
Research ethics is not a simple matter, and we do not have all the answers. There is seldom a bottom
line where the answer appears with a double underline. And today’s right answers may be wrong in
a year’s time. I think that the closest I can get to a truth is that where it is ethically complicated to
conduct research, it is also ethically complicated not to conduct research.
Take ethical reflection out into the world of work you are now entering, whether you continue your career
in research or go out into the public sector or into the business community. This is also a contribution to
Knowledge for a Better World.
This ceremony marks the end of your education at NTNU. This does not mean your ties to NTNU will be
cut from today. On the contrary, we regard you as our ambassadors and an important part of our national
and international network. I often meet NTNU alumni both in Norway and abroad, and I hope to meet you
again in that role.
Congratulations to each and every one of you, and all the best for the future. Wherever the road takes
you from here, carry on creating Knowledge for a Better World.

Æresdoktor/Doctor honoris causa
Ottoline Leyser
Prof. Ottoline Leyser; FRS; CBE; Director, Sainsbury Laboratory Cambridge University
Dr. Leyser’s academic career began with a degree in genetics followed by a PhD, both from Cambridge
University. Her thesis project focused on understanding the mode of action of the shoot meristem, which
gives rise to all aerial structures in plants. After her PhD she continued her research career in the Mark
Estelle group at Indiana University. During her time there she identified a gene required for the perception
of the phytohormone auxin. This gene is a key element in the molecular processes that regulate plant
development and movement, a topic that fascinated Charles Darwin more than 100 years ago. Her findings
were published in Nature and have provided a foundation for plant scientists to successfully dissect the
molecular mechanism that mediates auxin perception and response in plants.
In 1994 Dr Leyser set up her own research group at the University of York and has since made seminal contributions to the field of plant development. Her focus has been on the interplay between auxin and other
plant growth regulators that enable plants to successfully adapt to changing environments. Dr Leyser then
returned to Cambridge as the director of the newly established Sainsbury Laboratory Cambridge University,
funded by the Gatsby Foundation. This institute brings together 120 scientists from different scientific
areas in a new, purpose-built facility located in the Cambridge University Botanic Garden opened by Her
Majesty Queen Elizabeth II in 2011. The overall aim is to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying
plant development and apply the resulting knowledge to make a difference in the real world.
Dr Leyser has been extensively recognized for her groundbreaking work and has published widely. She
has been elected a Fellow of the Royal Society and a Foreign Associate of the US National Academy of
Sciences, and is a Member of the European Molecular Biology Organisation and the Leopoldina. Throughout
her career she has actively contributed to the development of the global plant science community by
14
participating in committees, outreach activities and mentorship programmes, including as chair of the
British Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) skills and careers strategy panel (2009-2012), her
membership in ERC consolidator or advanced grant panels for cellular and developmental biology (201216), international advisory boards of the Gregor Mendel Institute (Vienna) and the Max Planck Institute for
Developmental Biology (Tübingen) as well as the Wallenberg Genomics Consortium assessment panel.
In parallel to these strategic activities, Dr Leyser has constantly contributed to outreach activities and
public policy development. She has given open lectures at the University of York and the Cambridge
Science Festival, interviews with BBC World Service and the Today program, served as an expert witness to
the House of Commons Select Committee on genetically modified organisms as well as the Royal Society’s
conference on the future of scholarly scientific communication. More importantly, she has actively
promoted science education and research training, exemplified by the more than 40 PhD candidates and
postdoctoral scientists she has mentored during her career. In parallel she has provided guidance on
career development for female scientists and advised institutions on gender equality.
As a result of her active involvement in the development of the scientific community, policy and her
contributions to society at large, Queen Elizabeth II appointed her as Commander of the Order of the British
Empire.

Professorship for 2014-2017 and is the recipient of the Prince Mahidol Award for Public Health 2015.
He has been awarded honorary doctorates from 17 universities.
He chairs the Commission on Equity and Health Inequalities in the Americas, set up in 2015 by the World
Health Organizations’ Pan-American Health Organization (PAHO/ WHO). He was Chair of the Commission on Social Determinants of Health (CSDH), which was set up by the World Health Organization in
2005, and produced the report entitled: ‘Closing the Gap in a Generation’ in August 2008. At the request
of the British Government, he conducted the Strategic Review of Health Inequalities in England post
2010, which published its report 'Fair Society, Healthy Lives' in February 2010. This was followed by the
European Review of Social Determinants of Health and the Health Divide, for WHO Euro in 2014. He has also
chaired the Breast Screening Review for the NHS National Cancer Action Team and was a member of The
Lancet-University of Oslo Commission on Global Governance for Health.
He set up and led a number of longitudinal cohort studies on the social gradient in health in the UCL
Department of Epidemiology & Public Health (where he was head of department for 25 years), including
16
the Whitehall II Studies of British Civil Servants, investigating explanations for the striking inverse
social gradient in morbidity and mortality; the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing (ELSA), and several
international research efforts on the social determinants of health. He served as President of the British
Medical Association (BMA) in 2010-2011, is President of the British Lung Foundation, and is a Member of
the National Academy of Medicine.
Among his many awards, Professor Marmot is an Honorary Fellow of the American College of Epidemiology; a Fellow of the Academy of Medical Sciences; an Honorary Fellow of the British Academy, and an

Linn Halvorsrød, NTNU-kunstner 2015-2016
Linn Halvorsrød, (f. 1980) har en MA fra Kunstakademiet i Trondheim, NTNU.
Hun bor og arbeider i Trondheim. Utnevnelsen åpner for samarbeidsprosjekter
mellom kunstneren og NTNU.
I begrunnelsen for årets valg av NTNU-kunstner sier dr. Nancy Mauro-Flude,
Assistant Professor Art and Technology, følgende: “The artwork Eventyr is
awarded the NTNU artist for 2015/16. The jury notes the work exhibits an
unusually exuberant facility and energetic handling of material without
affectation or pretense. An ingenuous freedom is conveyed by the artist Linn Halvorsrød and her vigorous
use of form and colour is most immediately evident. The atypical faerie tale landscape is also one of the
distinctive features guiding and enchanting the viewer out of these new dark ages that we currently are
imbued with.”
I hvert diplom er det et nummerert grafisk trykk av årets NTNU-kunstner. Kunstneren sier dette om
bildet «Camilla»:
Jeg ber en venn legge seg oppå et papir. Så tegner jeg raskt rundt og jobber opp felter på papiret med blyant.
Tegningene skal være lekne former og brutte perspektiver slik at øyet som ser på dem går seg bort. Fargene
avspeiler personens personlighet. Tegningene er helt klart en lek med former og farger!

Linn Halvorsrød, NTNU-artist 2015-2016
Linn Halvorsrød (born in 1980) has an MA from the Trondheim Academy of Fine
Art, NTNU. She lives and works in Trondheim. The award creates an opportunity
for collaborative projects between the artist and NTNU.
Explaining why Linn Halvorsrød was chosen as the NTNU artist of the year,
Dr Nancy Mauro-Flude, Assistant Professor Art and Technology, comments:
“The artwork Eventyr is awarded the NTNU artist for 2015/16. The jury notes
the work exhibits an unusually exuberant facility and energetic handling of
material without affectation or pretense. An ingenuous freedom is conveyed by the artist Linn Halvorsrød
and her vigorous use of form and colour is most immediately evident. The atypical faerie tale landscape
is also one of the distinctive features guiding and enchanting the viewer out of these new dark ages that
we currently are imbued with.”
In each diploma, there is a numbered graphic print by this year’s NTNU artist. The artist explains about
the picture “Camilla”:
I ask a friend to lie on a sheet of paper. Then I draw around the outline and work out fields on the paper in
pencil. The drawings are meant to be playful forms and broken perspectives so that the eye that looks at them
starts to wander. The colours reflect the person’s personality. The drawings are clearly a play of shapes and
colours!

Tale til de nye doktorene ved prorektor for
forskning, Kari Melby
Kjære nye doktorer.
I dag er en stolt dag; for dere, for dem som er her sammen med dere og for
NTNU. Det er en festdag hvor vi feirer dere – hver enkelt av dere som nå har
nådd en milepæl i livet. Dere har gjennomført den høyeste utdanning man kan
få: på grunnlag av avhandling, prøveforelesning og disputas er dere kreert
doktorer ved NTNU.
Kari Melby
Prorektor
Det har krevd mye arbeid. Antakelig har dere møtt motgang og strev. Dere har
vært slitne og kanskje frustrerte. Det er krevende å gjennomføre et doktorgradsløp. Men forhåpentligvis har dere hatt det interessant og også kjent på glede. Gleden ved å oppdage noe
nytt, å tilegne seg kunnskap, oppnå erkjennelse og ny innsikt. Dere har jobbet selvstendig og pløyd ny
mark. Et algerisk ordtak sier «den som belærer deg, skjenker deg livet». Dere har hatt veiledere som har
hjulpet til. Og - det er noe dypt livgivende i det å lære, i det å forstå det du ikke tidligere har forstått, å
knekke koder, finne løsninger, se nye sammenhenger. Det er meningsfullt å tilegne seg ny viten. Og –
det gir stor tilfredsstillelse å nå mål man har satt seg. Det å fullføre et stort arbeid som en doktorgrad
er gir selvtillit i forhold til andre store oppgaver i livet. Dere har fått visshet om at dere kan nå mål dere
setter dere. Det skal dere nyte – i dag og i dagene som kommer.
Jeg håper at doktorgradsarbeidet har gitt gode opplevelser for hver og en av dere. Men det arbeidet dere
har utført er også viktig for NTNU. Vår oppgave er å bringe fram ny kunnskap. Vi har et stort ansvar for å
utvikle kunnskap samfunnet trenger for å opparbeide ny innsikt, nye forståelser, alternative tolkninger,
for omstilling, næringsutvikling, for bedre tjenester, bedre helse, bedre skole, bedre universiteter ….
21
Doktorgradsstudentene står for en betydelig andel av forskningen ved NTNU. Når vi har høye ambisjoner
for forskningskvalitet, betyr det at vi må stelle godt med dere som utgjør en så viktig forskningsressurs.
Dere er våre råvarer som må foredles videre. Det er i vår – ikke bare deres – interesse at vi gir dere gode
arbeidsforhold, gode miljø både faglig og sosialt, og bra veiledning. Vi vet at mye er bra i doktorgradsutdanningen ved NTNU, men vi vet også at mye kan bli bedre. Her må vi ha et kontinuerlig forbedringsarbeid og aldri si oss fornøyd.
Forskerfellesskapet har anerkjent kompetansen deres: Som kreerte doktorer er dere fullverdige medlemmer av akademia. Nå skal dere ta fatt på nye oppgaver. Kunnskap og kompetanse blir helt avgjørende for å bygge samfunnet. Dere har et godt grunnlag for arbeidet videre. Noen vil fortsette med forskning
i akademia, forskningsinstitutter og i næringslivet. Flere vil kombinere forskning og undervisning. Andre
skal anvende sin kompetanse i oppgaver som i stadig større grad stiller krav om høyt kvalifisert arbeidskraft i andre deler av arbeidslivet; i offentlig og privat virksomhet. Noen blant dere skal være med på å
skape arbeidsplasser for dere selv og andre. Felles for alle er at dere skal få bruk for skaperkraft. Dere
har fått med en verdifull ballast, uansett hvilken karrierevei dere tar.
For å si det med opplysningsfilosofen Immanuel Kant:
«Ha mot til å bruke din egen forstand.» Ha mot, tenker jeg, til å la kompetansen din gjøre en forskjell.
Dere skal bruke egen kompetanse og kreativitet, men i møtet med, og samme med, andre. Da blir
helheten større. Det er kanskje dette den nobelprisvinnende svenske poeten Tomas Tranströmer sier
slik: «Var människa en halvöppen dörr, som leder till ett rum för alla».
Doktorgraden er et mål – men også et springbrett til nye muligheter. Bruk skaperkraften og kompetansen til å fortsette å finne løsninger som ingen har sett før dere.
Gratulerer alle sammen, og lykke til videre!

Speech to the new doctors by Prorector for
education, Kari Melby
To our new PhDs
Today is a proud day; for you, for those who are here with you and for NTNU. It
is a day of celebration, and we are celebrating you – every one of you, who have
now achieved a milestone in life. You have completed the highest education one
can achieve: based on your thesis, your trial lecture and your public defence,
you have been awarded a doctoral degree from NTNU.
Kari Melby
Prorector
It has demanded an enormous effort. You have probably faced setbacks and
struggles. You have been tired and maybe frustrated. It is demanding to complete a doctoral programme. But hopefully you have found it interesting and also found some joy in the
process. The joy of discovering something new, of gaining knowledge, of achieving recognition and new
insight. You have worked independently and broken new ground. An Algerian proverb says “Those who
give you learning give you life”. You have had supervisors who have helped. And – there is something
profoundly life-giving in learning, in understanding something you have never understood before, in
cracking codes, finding solutions, seeing new connections. Gaining new knowledge is meaningful.
Achieving goals that you have set for yourself is a source of great satisfaction. To complete the great
work that a doctoral degree represents will give you self-confidence for other major tasks in life. You
have confirmed that you can reach goals that you set for yourselves. Make the most of this – today and
in the days to come.
I hope that your doctoral research has provided satisfying experiences for each of you. But the work
you have accomplished is also important for NTNU. Our mission is to bring new knowledge out into the
23
world. We have a great responsibility to develop the knowledge that society needs to gain new insight,
new understanding, alternative interpretations, for restructuring, business development, better services,
better health, better schools, better universities ….
Doctoral students contribute a substantial share of the research at NTNU. Our high ambitions for the
quality of our research mean that we must take good care of you who represent such an important
research resource. You are our resources that must be cultivated further. It is in our interests – and not
only in yours – that we offer you good working conditions, an attractive environment both academically
and socially, and good academic supervision. We know that many aspects of NTNU’s PhD programmes
are good, but we also know that a great deal could be improved. Here we must have continuous improvement efforts and never say that now we are satisfied.
The researcher community has recognized your expertise: As doctoral graduates, you are full members
of academia. Now you will be getting to grips with new tasks. Knowledge and skills are vital for building
our society. You have a solid foundation for further work. Some of you will continue with research in
academia, in research institutes and in the business community. Some will combine research and
teaching. Others will use their skills in tasks that create ever-increasing demands for highly qualified
professionals in other parts of the working world: in public- and private-sector activities. Some of you
will be involved in creating jobs for yourselves and others. What you all have in common is that you will
have opportunities to use your creative powers. You are taking valuable resources with you, whichever
career path you choose.
In the words of the Enlightenment philosopher Immanuel Kant:
“Have the courage to use your own understanding.” Have the courage, I would say, to let your expertise
make a difference. You will use your own skills and your own creativity, but in encounters and teamwork
with others. Then the whole becomes greater. Perhaps this is what the Swedish poet and Nobel laureate
24
Tomas Tranströmer is saying when he writes: “Var människa en halvöppen dörr, som leder till ett rum för
alla”. [“Each human a half-open door, leading to one room for all”].
Your doctorate is a goal – but also a springboard to new challenges. Use your creative powers and skills
to carry on finding solutions that no one has seen before you.
Congratulations to you all, and success for the future!
