The purpose of the project is to study assessment practices in four curricular areas (Norwegian, English, Mathematics and Physical Education) in primary education and in the first year of secondary education in Norway.

Enhancing biomass utilization without risking its sustainability is a European energy priority, and can be linked to targets for curbing greenhouse gas emissions by 20% by 2020 and 50% by 2050: enhanced energy security and integration with other...

Research in chemistry and materials science has traditionally been based on laboratory experiments. It is, however, also possible to compute the properties of molecules and materials using mathematical models based on basic theoretical physics, and...

This project intends to construct a technological platform for longlining, which will have a potential market ten times as large as the present market. In addition to being an automated alternative for those who operate longline manually or with...

This project will develop and demonstrate Highly Efficient Tubular Membranes for OxyCombustion. Oxycombustion is a promising option for implementing cost-efficient carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) in future coal fired power plants.

In recent years there have been many media reports about absenteeism and Norwegian workers' morale. Very few of these stories have referred to research. We believe attitudes to work and absence are shaped before people enter the labor market.

Norway has the opportunity to develop the macroalgae cultivation to a new, large industry. Industrial cultivation of macroalgae gives many opportunities within the production of bioenergy, food and health food, chemicals, and contributes to...
