Each student signs up individually, and teams will be formed at the start of the camp. In total, 20 seats are available. If we receive more applications than available spots, participants will be selected based on their motivation text. Our ambition is to create diverse and multidisciplinary teams. Both English- and Norwegian-speaking Bachelor’s and Master’s students are welcome, and we also encourage applications from students at international universities.
In addition, all students participating in the Nor-Fishing Student Camp will have access to the exhibition on all days, a dedicated room at Trondheim Spektrum for group work, and lunch.
