;
This course is part of the FROZEN CANOES project that aims to contr ibute to high quality research-based education by combining geoscience and engineering knowledge from Canada and Norway. FROZEN CANOES is funded by th e INTPART program of the Norwegian Research Council and the Centre for Inte rnationalization of University Studies in Norway.
Master and PhD students in Engineering and Earth Sciences as well as professional s are welcome to take the course. In total, there are 20 places available f or students coming from Canada and Norway and 10 places for professionals! Selected students will get a scholarship to help cover their travel and acc ommodation expenses.
Please note that prior to the residential course at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), two online l earning modules are mandatory as course preparation.
