The Gemini Centres that NTNU hosts or is partner in (page in Norwegian)

High-quality technical centres are in great demand internationally from both commercial clients and students. So the Gemini Centres are working with a shared vision: Global Excellence Together

The centres contributes towards:

• Achieving effective and long-term co-operation by means of mutual commitment
• Better utilisation of laboratory facilities and joint equipment upgrades
• A movement away from individual collaboration towards the development of larger, robust research centres
• A comprehensively planned interplay between basic and applied research
• Greater universal exposure in relation to clients and students
