PhD courses

The courses in this portfolio will be offered on compact form, which implies that lectures and practical training will be scheduled so as to facilitate attendance by PhD candidates from all the partner institutions. A possible arrangement is that lectures are concentrated in two series of one week duration each. Students traveling from other institutions to attend couses may apply for financial support to cover travel and lodging. The courses only run if a suffieciently large number of students sign up for it.

Forms to fill out for visiting students

Course at NTNU?

PhD-candidates at Vestfold University College or University of Oslo who plan to take any of the courses given at NTNU need to fill out this form. You also need to submit a confimation that you have been accepted as a PhD student at your home institution. More information available here

The deadline for visiting student applications at NTNU is 15. September 2010 for the fall semester of 2010 and 15. February 2011 for the spring semester of 2011. The same deadlines are also for registrations to courses. If the deadline has already past, contact the course teacher to check out the possibilities to follow the course anyway.

Course at University of Oslo (UiO)?

PhD-candidates from NTNU or Vestfold University College who plan to take any courses given at University of Oslo needs to fill out this form. The deadline is 12. August for the fall semester. For the spring semester the deadline is 12. January. You also need to submit a confimation that you have been accepted as a PhD student at your home institution. More information from UiO is available here.

Registration deadline for courses at UiO is 1. September for the fall semester of 2010 and 1. February for the spring semester of 2011. If the deadline has already past, contact the course teacher to check out the possibilities to follow the course anyway.

Course at Vestfold University College (HiVe)?

PhD-candidates from NTNU or University of Oslo who plan to take any courses given at Vestfold University College need to fill out the form you find on HiVe’s website.

Other courses

We are currently working on a register of PhD courses offered with support from the network. :

Our goal is to offer PhD level courses on the following topics:

  • Tools and methods for nanostructuring and characterization
  • Advanced design and modelling of micro- and nano systems
  • ASICs for MEMS/NEMS
  • Nanophotonics and optical micro- and nano systems
  • Nanotechnology for biological sensors and biofunctionality
  • Ferroelectrica and dielectrica for microelectronics and MEMS/NEMS
  • Mesoscopic physics

The network can also contribute financially to the development of new courses within the areas mentioned above. Contact us for further information.
