Doktorandombud (Doctoral Student Officer)

Rina Blomberg serves as the Doctoral Student Officer (DO) for all doctoral students across all faculties at LiU, where she also represents them on the Education Committee. Holding a PhD in disability science, Rina brings a wealth of academic experience from postgraduate studies. She offers confidential consultations to doctoral students seeking impartial advice on their study situation, supervision, or work environment, and can either provide guidance on taking further action or represent the student throughout the university's handling of their case. Additionally, Rina assists students with general inquiries, helping them navigate issues like locating postgraduate courses, establishing contact networks with other PhD students, or accessing information in English.
