About

Study Program Manager MSUMA

2-year International Master program in Sustainable Manufacturing (link above)

NTNU coordinator META 4.0

Erasmus Mundus Joint Master (see link above)

Teaching courses in Sustainable Manufactruring.

Student supervision and guidance at alle levels, but primarily focused on MSUMA

Project Work:

Started blog and wiki-page on Industry 4.0 Education

Background:

I studied materials and physics in Trondheim (NTH/NTNU) and finished my PhD (Doktoringeniør) in materials technology in 2001/2002 on applied research on the alumina raw material used to produce aluminium - by electrolysis at around 960 degrees C. I joined SINTEF in Oslo and continued to focus on functional materials, mostly as thin films applied in silicon-based sensors and actuators (MEMS- micro electro-mechanical systems), including project and systems architecture and management. I joined NTNU in Gjøvik, in 2018 and live in Lillehammer with my familiy. More background and updated network and interests also on LinkedIn. See link above.
