Faculty of Economics to be consolidated at Hesthagen
Amid the established innovation environments in the area, a new meeting place is emerging for the economists and technologists of the future. When the Department of Industrial Economics and Technology Management (IØT) moves to Hesthagen, the entire Faculty of Economics will be brought together in one location. The new building will be situated directly across from the NTNU Business School, where the faculty administration and several academic communities from the department are already based. This co-location creates strong opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration, entrepreneurship, and fresh thinking—from the first year of study to the completion of a master’s degree—close to one another and close to industry.
New spaces for work, collaboration, and innovation
The building will include workspaces, student areas, special-purpose rooms, and places where people can meet and collaborate. It will support NTNU’s focus on innovation. The new building will house the entire Department of Industrial Economics and Technology Management, improving opportunities for collaboration and resource sharing across the faculty’s academic programmes.
A new link between Elgeseter and the Gløshaugen plateau
A new bridge through Høgskoleparken will provide public access and pedestrian connection between the new building and Sem Sælands vei on the Gløshaugen plateau. The bridge will link the new building, the Adolf Øien building and the rest of the innovation enviroment in Elgeseter gate more closely with the rest of campus on the plateau.
