Veders\u00f8 is the head teacher at Gefion Gymnasium and the chair of Danske Gymnasier, an interest group for the country\u2019s upper-secondary schools. She holds an MA in Danish and Italian from Aarhus University. According to the administration, Veders\u00f8 brings with her experience working with issues related to gymnasium education at both the school and national levels allows her to represent one of the university\u2019s main sources of incoming students, as well as one of the public education system\u2019s main employers of graduates.<\/p>\n

Birgitte Veders\u00f8<\/strong>, external member<\/p>\n

Gomard is the co-founder of Netcompany. After serving as its managing director for 10 years, he now sits on its board of directors. He holds a PhD in computer science from the University of Copenhagen.<\/p>\n

As managing director of Netcompany, Gomard led one of Denmark\u2019s most successful IT firms of recent years. He brings with him private-sector executive experience with digitalisation, innovation, technological development and other topics, all of which will benefit university development.<\/p>\n

Chair: promising additions<\/h3>\n

New legislation that came into effect last year prevents students and staff from nominating candidates to sit on the board. Instead, the university called on qualified candidates to nominate themselves. Mads Krogsgaard Thomsen, the chair of the Board, welcomed the nominations.<\/p>\n

\u201cBirgitte Veders\u00f8 and Carsten Gomard are promising additions to the Board and will make significant contributions to topics related to education and the university\u2019s technological development and digitalisation. Their professional experiences are an excellent complement to\u00a0those possessed by the others on the Board. I look forward working with the two new external Board members as we move the university further along in its development through the realisation of Strategy 2023, while also building on the strong position the university has,\u201d Thomsen told KUnet.<\/p>\n

Veders\u00f8 and Gomard begin their four-year terms on 1 July.
