By 2018, all students should, as part of their studies, participate as much as possible in: internships, study jobs or project work with a company in the region (public or private), where relevant with complementary volunteer work. Sub-goal 2: Innovative entrepreneurship should promote development on the Northern Jutland job market. By 2018, at least 25% of companies estab- lished by new graduates should still exist in the Northern Jutland business community two years after establishment. Sub-goal 3: The study environment should be developed – inclusively. In 2018, 50% of the students should be users of or active participants in the development of the city’s clubs and cultural and leisure associ- ations while they are studying in Aalborg. Sub-goal 4: Those students who leave the city after completing their studies should be ambassadors for the city. In 2018, at least 75% of the graduates who leave Aalborg should acknowledge that they will recommend other young people to move to Aalborg and study there. Sub-goal 5: The greatest possible number of students should remain employed in Northern Jutland after completion of their studies. In 2018, 65% of all students should find employment in Northern Jutland no later than one year after finishing their studies in Aalborg. The subgoals are expected to be met in 2018 by the end of the period for the educational strategy. During the period 2015-18, assessments will be made of the status of goal fulfilment. At the start of the peri- od, the current status of the subgoals will be assessed. Focus areas of the educational strategy The sub-goals and objectives can only be accomplished through joint coordination among Aalborg Municipali- ty, the educational institutions, students and the busi- ness, culture and leisure communities in Aalborg. The six focus areas of the educational strategy have been identified in dialogue with the strategy partners. 8 The Educational City of Aal- borg concept is used through- out the entire educational strategy.

    Jorn Utzon • Jørn Utzon, was born in the 9th of April 1918, Copenhagen. In 1937 he began studying architecture at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Art. In 1942 he returned to Copenhagen after his graduation. • Later he worked with the famous architect Alvar Aalto. As he became more experienced and popular, he fascinated lots of foreign countries with his magnificent architecture such as the Svaneke Water Tower and Middelboe House. Sydney Opera House, Sydney, Australia, 1973 • In 1957 Jørn Utzon won the competition of Designing the Sydney Opera House. His design was one of the 233 submissions from 32 countries, many of them from the most famous architects of that time. • The Danish architect won the competition to design the Sydney Opera House in 1957, but resigned from the project in 1966 after concerns over construction costs escalated. • . The building was completed without him in 1973. It was opened by Queen Elizabeth II with an exciting opening ceremony. But Jørn Utzon, the architect who put the most effort into the project was not invited and his name was not mentioned at the opening ceremony. • However, on May 17, 1985, Jørn Utzon was awarded with the ’Companion of the Order of Australia’, one of Australia's most important honors and he was invited to redesign the entrance of the Sydney Opera House. • And In 2003, he was awarded the Pritzker Architecture Award, one of the most prestigious awards in architecture. • Back in Denmark, Utzon embarked on two other key architectural projects: the Bagsværd Church (Denmark) built between 1968 and 1976, and the Kuwait National Assembly, designed and built from 1971 onwards and rebuilt in 1993 after being destroyed by Iraqi forces during the Gulf War.

  • Finding the Land of Opportunity Intergenerational Mobility in Denmark
    Finding the Land of Opportunity Intergenerational Mobility in Denmark Jesper Eriksen Department of Business and Management Aalborg University 178,866 characters with spaces - 74.5 pages May 31, 2018 Abstract Denne afhandling omhandler lige muligheder inden for intergenerationel mobilitet i en dansk kontekst. Afhandlingen forholder sig til spørgsmålet, “Er lighed i muligheder påvirket af lokalområder i Danmark?”. Jeg besvarer forskningsspørgsmålet ved at undersøge tre under- spørgsmål: (1) “Hvad karakteriserer den geografiske fordeling af muligheder i Danmark?”, (2) “Hvorfor kunne bestemte grupper, defineret ved geografi, forventes at opleve højere eller lavere mobilitet? Hvilken rolle spiller lokalområde karakteristika som forklarende variabel i forhold til lige muligheder?”, og (3) “Hvad er effekten af at flytte fra ét lokal område til et andet for lige muligheder for flyttende familier?“. Først opstiller jeg et teoretisk grundlag for at kunne diskutere lighed i muligheder, som filosofisk begreb, i relation til gængse mål for lighed i muligheder: intergenerationel mobilitet. Jeg påviser, at det ikke er muligt at vurdere, hvorvidt lighed i muligheder påvirkes ud fra nogen af de tre teorier ved alene at undersøge mobilitetsmål. For at besvare forskningsspørgsmålet kræves der information om, hvordan lokalområder kausalt påvirker intergenerationel mobilitet. For at besvare første underspørgsmål beskriver jeg grundlæggende træk i litteraturen om in- tergenerational mobilitet, samt den metodiske literatur om intergenerationel mobilitetsmål. Datagrundlaget for besvarelsen er dansk registerdata for perioden 1980-2012, som tillader kobling af børn og forældre, samt måling af samlet indkomst før skat. Ved at allokere børn født mellem 1973-1975 til de kommuner, som primært vokser op i, fra de er 7-15 viser jeg, at der er substantiel variation i intergenerationel mobilitet på tværs af danske kommuner.

  • The Utzon Paradigm
    THE UTZON PARADIGM Roger Tyrrell Co-Director of the Jørn Utzon Research Network (JURN) and Adrian Carter Co- Director of the Jørn Utzon Research Network (JURN), Director of the Utzon Research Center, Aalborg University. RE-CONSIDERING UTZON “Comparable in subtle ways to the protean achievements of Le Corbusier, Utzon’s architecture emerges today as paradigmatic at many levels not least of which is the manner in which, from the beginning of his career, he would challenge the assumed superiority of Eurocentric culture.” (Frampton. K. 2003 p 6) This Paper strives to address three objectives. The first is to discuss the Utzon’s oeuvre from a paradigmatic perspective, the second to layer that paradigm within two distinct but interconnected frameworks. The third objective is to explore the fusion of this dichotomous paradigm through the concept of ‘poetic conjunction’. Jørn Utzon (1918-2008) is now internationally recognised as one of the most original, innovative and socially concerned of modern architects, perhaps the last great exponent of the humanistic Nordic tradition within modern architecture. He is the architect of what is still widely considered the most noble and humane housing built in Denmark, a simple, yet poetic modern church at Bagsværd and the most iconic and popular building of the 20th Century, his great unfinished masterpiece, the Sydney Opera House. (Fig 1) The Opera House has become the symbol of not just Sydney, but also Australia; that owes it origins to the maritime environment of Aalborg, where Jørn Utzon spent his youth, and the inspiration of his father Aage Utzon, an esteemed yacht designer.
