Tatu Koljonen
Director
Person profile
Tehtäväni liittyvät strategisten hankkeiden eteenpäin viemiseen. Näitä ovat esimerkiksi uudet toimintatavat, rahoituslähteet sekä yritysyhteistyö. Tyypillisesti hankkeet hyödyttävät useampia professoreja, mutta eivät ole kenenkään päävastuuna, joten minä edistän projekteja yhteystyössä korkeakoulun johdon ja professoreiden kanssa.
