This weekend we had the pleasure of hosting our Minister of education and research, Ms. Iselin Nybø.

6 May 2019

During a hectic weekend, she got to meet our scientists and enjoyed Friday gathering with our students, visited the Kjell Henriksen Observatory and Svalsat and enjoyed a boat excursion to Billefjorden. Here are some snapshots from the visit. Thank you for the visit and welcome back!
