– “We are now addressing both students who are about to choose a master’s program and people who are working and want a refresher,” says Thomas Haavi, associate professor and responsible for the new master’s program in building informatics and wood structures at NTNU Gjøvik.
Combine work and study
The program is initially a 2-year full-time program, but it is possible to get a customized study plan over several years. Communication with students takes place via a digital platform, where lectures, assignments and other relevant information are posted. Many of the lectures are also video recorded. In some courses, there may be mandatory requirements that require physical attendance on certain days, such as in connection with lab exercises.
Admission requirements
You must have a bachelor’s degree in engineering with at least 25 credits in mathematics, 5 credits in statistics and 7.5 credits in physics, or equivalent education. The program is suitable for all engineers with an interest in construction.
Job opportunities
The construction industry is one of Norway’s largest industries, where there is a great need for digital expertise and an increasing focus on sustainable, circular solutions. You can work in architectural offices, in consulting engineering companies and with contractors. Common tasks include project management, design, construction and operation and maintenance of buildings.
