Welcome to study start at NTNU
We are very much looking forward to welcoming our new students to study start.
Due to the current situation with the pandemic, this year's matriculation ceremony will be organised in a slightly different manner than usual.
Exchange students will be invited to view the matriculation ceremony digitally.
Master's students will be invited by their respective study programmes to a screening of the matriculation ceremony on campus together with their classmates.
More information on this year's Matriculation ceremony.
The 2021 autumn meetings are held online on August 17:
08:30 - Joint welcome meeting for new exchange and master's students
Students are encouraged to attend the 'Get started'-day on Gløshaugen or Dragvoll after the welcome meeting.

Find more information here. Agendas, and links to the meetings, will also be posted at this link.
'Get-started'-day
On August 17, the day after matriculation, a vast number of different student organizations will be present on campus at Gløshaugen and Dragvoll, to showcase the variety of activities, causes and organizations you can engage with outside your studies at NTNU.
NTNU, and Trondheim in particular, is well-known for a vibrant and lively student community with a strong volunteerism spirit - as a result, there are literally hundreds of different associations, clubs, sports teams and organizations you can join in your free time, which is an excellent way to make friends.
Most of these will be present on campus on August 17, and will have stands outdoors where you can wander about and talk to representatives from any organization that catches your fancy. Representatives from certain services at NTNU and Sit, such as the Office of International Relations, will also be present.
The Office of International Relations will give a presentation (on campus) in English on the various student associations and organizations available.
