Great job opportunities – in Norway and abroad
As a graduate from NTNU’s geotechnical engineering program, you’ll be in high demand – both in Norway and internationally.
Employers value NTNU engineers for their strong academic background and hands-on experience.
You’ll have the freedom to work:
- onshore
- offshore
- abroad
Most NTNU students receive job offers before they graduate, and in Norway, there is a real shortage of geotechnical engineers.
The future looks exciting
The construction industry is changing fast, with a strong focus on:
- offshore wind energy
- digital tools and solutions
- sustainable construction
These areas are key to the green transition – and need geotechnical engineers like you.
A strong network opens doors
As an NTNU student, you’ll benefit from:

- close ties to contractors, consultants, government agencies, and research centers
This gives you valuable connections and a good start to your career.
