Every year, the University of Oslo awards five prizes for research, young researchers, education, dissemination, and innovation.
The awards are given as a recognition of outstanding efforts and aim to stimulate increased activity and inspire the academic communities at the University of Oslo. Each winner received 250,000 NOK and a work of art.
This year, Professor Dag Kristian Dysthe, one of our CompSci supervisors, received the Education Award. He received the award for his work in developing new teaching methods, based on interdisciplinary and research-based teaching. Dysthe uses student-active forms of teaching where collaboration between students, and between students and lecturers, is at the centre. Dysthe has invested considerable resources in constantly preparing new, engaging issues and in providing students with training and teaching to equip them with the knowledge and skills they need.
