About
At the end of January 2022, I left the Faculty of Engineering to join the Faculty of Architecture and Design, more specifically the Department of Design at NTNU Gjøvik. My main responsibilities will be teaching, conducting research, and supervising – from undergraduate to PhD – in the broad field of System Oriented and Service Design.
