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. He is a member of the Young Academy of Norway (2024-2028), where he works for education and in particular the role of the natural sciences in society.
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
