Energi - sivilingeniørprogrammet

The University of Bergen has earned the reputation as Norway's most international university. The faculty hosts two priority areas:

Marine | Climate and energy transition

The faculty hosts the secretariat of the Norwegian marine university consortium

The faculty consists of seven departments who together represent the foundation of our research and education within disciplines such as mathematics, chemistry, physics, computer science, geoscience and life sciences, and with cross-diciplinary emphasis on climate, energy and marine research and education.

Teaching is offered at all levels and in all our research fields:

Ctenophore research points to earlier origins of brain-like structures

New 3D reconstructions of a key sensory organ in ctenophores reveal an unexpected structural and functional complexity. The findings suggest that an elementary brain may have already appeared in our most ancient relatives, reshaping our understanding of nervous system evolution in animals.

New research
Greenland Ice Sheet

The ice on Greenland is acting strangely. Scientists believe they finally know why

The findings could reshape how we understand future sea level rise, according to researchers at the University of Bergen (UiB).

Quantum physics may hold the key to detecting cancer early

Imagine a blood test that works like a car’s dashboard, warning you before cancer develops. Researchers in Bergen are using quantum physics and diamonds to make that possible.

Doctoral education

Faculty of Science and Technology offers doctoral education within the following disciplines: biology, chemistry, earth science, physics and technology, informatics, mathematics, molecular biology and geophysics. We also offer doctoral training in collaboration with several partner institutions.
