• Green Paper English version / Short Slides version
• Have your say! (English / Norwegian) or use e-mail
   

Main elements of the process

• The plan will have a timescale of ten years (2010–2020).
• One of the purposes of having a ten-year plan is to regenerate the discussion of the roadmap and the university’s long-term role in modern society.
• The plan is intended to reinforce the work on academic prioritizations and on some parts of the former strategic plan.
• Strengthening the University’s position as a research university of high international standing will continue to be a prime objective.
• Emphasis is to be placed on internationalization and on developing a university committed to excellence and environmental sustainability.
• A further aim is to facilitate a more proactive use of the strategic plan vis-à-vis the authorities and external partners.
