Career Networks
Career Networks enable cooperation with a number of companies and are intended to promote networking between female students and the relevant partner companies in the business community. The Girl Project Ada runs two different career networks; one for electronics and cybernetics and another for the IT students. Each network has 4 annual gatherings.
Activities
In the Girl Project Ada you can participate in social and professional events: Everything from career networking evenings to mountain hikes and CodeHub. CodeHub is a social meet-up for female IT students who wish to learn more about IT and programming.
Cybele and Kammerset are rooms reserved for female ICT students.
There is also a women’s football team called Datakameratene, but as an NTNU student you also have the opportunity for membership of Norway’s largest sports club, NTNUI.
