FACTS
NTNU key figures
53 departments in 7 faculties
registered students, 6500 admitted
60000student applications
3300 B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees awarded
270 Ph.D. degrees awarded
Staff: person-years
2 500 employed in education and research;
Budget: EUR 525 million
m2 owned and rented premises
The number of applicants is taken from NTNU Table 1 (p. 13) in the annual report ( ) to the Ministry of Education and Research. (See also the table “Studentrapporter/Søknadstall” for NTNU at Database for Higher Education (DBH), dbh.nsd.uib.no). Note that the number of applications is much higher than the number of applicants, because a single applicant may apply to several study programmes at the same time. (See also Database for Higher Education (DBH), at The total number of applications is the sum of the applications filed with the Universities and Colleges Admission Service (UCAS), which number approximately 40,000, and the applications that for various reasons (see below) come directly to NTNU.
The number of primary applicants (applicants that have NTNU listed as their first choice) is taken from NUCAS ( and from the NTNU annual press release in April/May. (For 2007 see 27th April 2007.) The term “primary applicants” only applies to those applicants coordinated through UCAS. The number does not include those applying directly to NTNU for a higher degree, for the cand.psychol. degree in psychology, applicants for the spring semester and applicants to The Trondheim Academy of Fine Art and performance studies in music (as a result of required entrance exams for admission).
Approximately 6,500 are accepted (see above mentioned Table 1). The difference of approximately 3,000 between those accepted and the number of graduates is explained thusly: Those who graduate have completed a course of study here, for example in technology (MSc). Among those accepted, many will not complete a course of study for a lower/higher degree at NTNU. Some do not show up despite accepting a place at the university, some leave after a few weeks/months, some are accepted into studies of a shorter duration on the basis of main studies at another university, and some only follow individual courses as part of their continuing education.
The admissions process may be divided into five stages: 1) Submitted applications; 2) Qualified applicants; 3) Study offers; 4) Acceptance of the study offer; 5) Arriving at the university and paying the semester fee. (Numbers for categories 1) and 5) are found in DBH.)
The number of registered students is taken from Table 1 in in the annual report ( ) to the Ministry of Education and Research.
The number of degrees awarded is taken from said Table 1 (p. 13) in the annual report ( ) to the Ministry of Education and Research, and the number of PhDs awarded from NTNU Table 5 in the same document (p. 33).
The number of employees is taken from dbh.nsd.uib.no for 2007 (Institusjon-stillingsgruppe-stillingskategori-stillingskode = Undervisnings-, forsknings- og formidlingsstilling). The number of professors, adjunct professors (“prof. II”) not included, is from the same table, code 1013.
The budget number is taken from The first table in the appendix to the annual report ( ) to the Ministry of Education and Research.
The space estimate is taken from “Areal” in dbh.nsd.uib.no.

5. Cooperation with SINTEF
R & D
Cooperation with SINTEF
SINTEF is one of Europe’s largest independent research organizations
Turnover NOK 2 billion, 2000 staff (500 in Oslo)
Established in 1950 as the contract research organization of the Norwegian Inst. of Technology
Contract research in technology, natural sciences, medicine and social sciences
Cooperates with NTNU in terms of staff, equipment, laboratories and dissemination
15 Gemini Centres for joint NTNU/SINTEF R&D
Many NTNU staff are permanent SINTEF advisers
Many SINTEF staff are adjunct professors at NTNU
The Gemini Centres:
NTNU and SINTEF established jointly the first five Gemini Centres in The vision for the centres is that they should excel internationally. These academic communities are expected to establish common strategic processes and coordinated planning of applications for larger R&D projects and programmes. The groups will thus be better suited to creating innovation and contributing to business development.
The following 15 Gemini Centres have been established (January 2006, see chapter 5.3, NTNU Table 5.1. in “NTNU Budget Document ”, and
- Acoustic Research Center
- Applied Refrigeration Technology
- Sustainable Architecture and Property Maintenance
- Catalysis and Adsorbents (CATMAT)
- Electrical Energy and Energy Systems
- Energy Use and the Indoor Environment
- Health Services Research Centre
- Marine Structures
- Materials and Energy
- MiNaLab (Center for Micro- and Nanotechnology)
- Petroleum Centre
- PV-solar Cell Materials
- Road and Transport Engineering
- Robust Materials Technology and Design – Offshore Applications
- Underground Technology
There are currently no records about the number of academic staff with contracts with both NTNU and SINTEF.
