Application closed

Enrolment Period:

15th of September to 15th of October

Disrupting new ideas often precedes disruptive new-engineered technologies or the two interact. The course aims at discussing such technologies and ideas and the many relationships between them, assuming that they will have a great impact on cities in the near and more distant future. If applied properly they could ensure a more sustainable development of cities. The course aims at studying some selected such technologies and ideas and to train our ability to detect them in advance and to apply them.

University of Stavanger

The University of Stavanger is situated on Norway’s south-west coast, surrounded by magnificent and diverse landscapes. The charming harbour city of Stavanger ranks as Norway’s fourth largest with approximately 130,000 inhabitants and is known as Norway’s “oil and energy capital”. The Stavanger region is Norway’s most productive area and has been the national hub for innovative industry for several decades, partly owing to the petroleum industry and partly to a spirit of innovation and entrepreneurship which existed long before the oil age.
