Faculty of Computer Science and Media Technology
The activity at the Faculty of Computer Science and Media Technology (IMT) is concentrated around modern computer, communication and media technology – areas that undergo a rapid development, where computer technology meets radio, television, printed and Internet based media to form an integrated, digital information industry. IMT has established itself as a strong party in education and research within these areas.
IMT has undergraduate programmes in information technology, computer science, information security, digital media technology, media design and media management, and graduate programmes in media technology, color in informatics and media technology and information security.
IMT has over the last years increased the research effort considerably, and the department now has a strong research community succeded in working to establish a PhD programme in information security. As a student you will benefit from being a part of this strong community when doing your own research for modules and your thesis.
The faculty is devided into two academics sections:
The Colorlab performs colour measurement at NTNU’s Daylight Laboratory
The Artificial Sky is an important element of Daylight Laboratory at the Department of Architectural Design, Form and Colour Studies, NTNU, Trondheim. It simulates a totally overcast sky, i.e. overcast enough to prevent perception of the sun and its halo. Among other tasks, the Artificial Sky can be used to perform psychophysical experiments for a number of different purposes. In a current experiment the influence of different window classes in house architecture and the corresponding human colour perception in the room have been investigated.
