LUILOK 2.0 – localisation of the Faculty of Education and International Studies’ activities

The project encompasses four main areas:

• Processes regarding academic activities and area specifications at the new Campus Romerike: The project will assist the management team in ensuring effective information and participation processes in the work on academic content and area specifications for a future Campus Lillestrøm.
• OsloMet’s campus development plan: The project will support the faculty in exploring, planning, and implementing suitable solutions for employees and students, both in the short and long term.
• Boost of Campus Kjeller: The project will develop initiatives to strengthen the work environment and contribute to academic development for all of LUI, in close collaboration with employees and students. The project is represented in the "Area Initiative – Kjeller Enhancement towards 2033," which primarily targets students.
• Data hub in P48: The project will follow up on the establishment of the data hub and address LUI's needs.

The LUILOK 2.0 project will also:

• Assist in deliveries to the central campus programme in line with the campus development plan and facilitate participation processes for these deliveries.  
• Assist in the follow-up of the labs ("spesialrom") project. 
• Provide information to and facilitate increased knowledge for the steering group and faculty employees.  
• Collaborate with the Student Faculty Council (Studentenes fakultetsråd, SFR) on student involvement and participation. 
• Update the risk assessment for the project, including associated risk-reducing measures.  

The project had four main areas in the academic year 2024-2025: 

• Processes related to the decision about academic activity at Campus Lillestrøm.
• ESTs move to P52.
• Area allocation in Pilestredet.
• Boost of Campus Kjeller.

The project had five main areas in the academic year 2023-2024:

• Processes related to academic activities at Campus Lillestrøm.
• Labs ("spesialrom").
• ESTs move to P52: The Department of Art, Design and Drama (EST) at the Faculty of Technology, Art and Design (TKD) moves into Pilestredet 52, which has consequences for our faculty.
• Working areas in Pilestredet, short term and long term solutions.
• Boost of Campus Kjeller for employees and students at the faculty.  

The project had three main areas in the academic year 2022-2023: 

• Processes related to academic activities at Campus Lillestrøm.
• Working areas in Pilestredet, short term and long term solutions.
• Boost of Campus Kjeller for employees and students at the faculty.  

Feasibility study autumn 2020

LUILOK carried out a feasibility study in autumn 2020, which generated potential localisation concepts. The possibilities were on different scales when it comes to price, scope, quality and organisational consequences, and were described in a report. The report was intended to give the project’s steering committee a good decision-making basis for initiating a pre-project.

Pre-project spring 2021

The LUILOK project group conducted a pre-project in spring 2021. The pre-project addressed the commissions in OsloMet’s campus programme:

• A progress schedule for closing and moving out of the Kjeller campus. The document is available via OpenGov (opengov.360online.com, in Norwegian).
• Cooperation possibilities at the future campus in Romerike.
  • The preliminary input from 1 April is available via OpenGov (opengov.360online.com, in Norwegian).
  • The final input from 1 July is also available via OpenGov (opengov.360online.com, in Norwegian).
• An overall plan of how offices and areas at the Pilestredet campus can be used. The document is available via OpenGov (opengov.360online.com, in Norwegian).
