About
André Brodtkorb is the Head of Department of Computer Science and Professor of Scientific Computing. He has a Ph.D. from the University of Oslo (2010), and has been a researcher at SINTEF (Norways largest non-profit research organization), and the Norwegian Meteorological Institute.
His area of research is in the intersection between mathematics, numerics and computer science, and he is a strong proponent of open science and reproducible research.
Research interests:
- Applied mathematics and numerics.
- Parallel computing and supercomputing.
- Simulation of physics, including ocean currents, flood, floodwaves, storm surge, volcanic ash, etc.
Experience:
- 2023-d.d. Head of department of Computer Science at OsloMet.
- 2021-2023. Head of mathematical modeling at OsloMet
- 2019-2021. Scientist at the Norwegian Meteorological Institute, Department of climate modeling and air pollution.
- 2010-2019. Researcher at SINTEF, Department of applied mathematics
