New chancellor debate: NTNU is struggling to open up the process
This spring, NTNU will have a new rector. Two rounds of interviews have been carried out, where four of the candidates were called to the final round: Øyvind W. Gregersen, Monica Rolfsen, Tor Grande and Jan Gulliksen.
NTNU is the country’s largest university. Whoever gets the rector’s job joins the group of national strategists who have the power to influence the development of Norway. Who is best suited for the job?
It is the board at NTNU that will decide, but before this UA will conduct the last of a total of three rector candidate debates.
On Tuesday evening at 19.00-20.30 the deans Øyvind W. Gregersen and Monica Rolfsen and acting rector Tor Grande meet in the Lille sal in Olavshallen. Here they will be challenged by NTNU board member Aksel Tjora.
During the debate, our comments section will be moderated, and our readers can ask the candidates questions here.

Theme for the evening: NTNU vs. the employees
- NTNU has technology and natural sciences as its main profile. It is also a comprehensive university.
- The economical thumb screw is screwed on. Now government-employed researchers and administrators can also lose their jobs. How to lead a university where you may have to go to dismissals?
- These are demanding times for the employees, and they will not be less demanding in the years to come. Then a comprehensive campus gathering will be completed. What challenges do they see in this picture?
The debate is led by Universitetsavisa’s editor Tore Oksholen.
