In the spring semester of 2027, students from eight villages in the Experts in Teamwork (EiT) course will work on projects connected to Mission NET Zero. The initiative emphasizes the complexity of achieving a zero-emission society and the importance of cross-disciplinary collaboration.

Mission NET Zero is a collaboration between Experts in Teamwork and NTNU Energy Transition Initiative, where interdisciplinary student teams work on one of the most important challenges of our time – the transition to a sustainable energy system. The aim is to motivate students for continued involvement in the energy transition, both throughout the EiT course and in their future careers. Solving the challenges related to the energy transition will require collaboration across different sectors and disciplines.

All Mission NET Zero students are invited to a joint seminar on Wednesday, 27 January 2027. Time and venue will be announced later. With students from a broad range of disciplines, the seminar aims to build a shared understanding of why the energy transition requires interdisciplinary collaboration, and to show how different disciplines at NTNU work with different aspects of the transition.
