BRU21 Academy
The BRU21 team is establishing a continuing education master program in Digitalization and Automation in the Energy Sector where the courses are alligned with the BRU21 research.
NTNU runs several continuing educatin programs, please see the continuing education pages at NTNU for a list of programs. Among these programs is the Technology Management and Digital Transformation program where our ambition is to establish the specialization in Digitalization and Automation in the Energy Sector. The structure of our specialization is planned as follows:
- A set of 5 basic courses where the students choose 4 out of these courses
- A set of specialization courses in digitalization and automation in the energy sector where the students choose 4 out of these courses, see a list of current and planned courses below
- A master project where the student typically applies theory from the program on a relevant use case in her/his own company.
For continuing education programs it is expected that the student studies in parallel with ordinary work which means that the duration of the program is around 4 years. There is no required sequence of the courses to follow, but for some courses there is a recommended sequence.
To be admitted to the master program it is required to have a BSc degree in a technology discipline and minimum two years of relevant work experience.
