Welcome

Welcome to Science-IT!

Most of us are happy working in such an exciting team, but there definitely is some transition time. In addition to all the usual struggles with starting a new job, there’s a big transition from being an academic (focused on own work) to working both in our team and to help others. Don’t worry too much, we’ve worked on this extensively and a lot of this onboarding is about helping you with that transition.

You shouldn’t be alone, your supervisor and team is here to help you. When you are an academic, there’s this implicit expectation that you do almost everything yourself (and if it takes a while, at least you learned something). We also have a spirit of learning, but you shouldn’t waste time on known things, when you could learn from someone else on the team faster and better.
