Tin has been employed at SITRAP - Centre for Integrated and Transdisciplinary Teaching in Planning at NMBU. The main goal of this employment is to evaluate the Interdisciplinary Master Project program (TfMP). He has been hired as an “independent investigation board”, to evaluate the degree of interdisciplinarity, what has the learning outcome been, and the essential question: if not interdisciplinary, what is the point of it all?
The Interdisciplinary Master Project (TfMP) provides students with the opportunity to complete their master's thesis within an interdisciplinary learning community centred around shared themes related to sustainable development. While students pursue individual research projects within their respective degree programmes, they participated in a common professional and social environment consisting of start-up and mid-term seminars, academic lectures, excursions, and regular social gatherings. The scheme aimed to strengthen active learning, foster interdisciplinary exchange, and provide students with a supportive network throughout the thesis-writing process.
SITRAP – the Centre for Integrated and Transdisciplinary Teaching in Planning at NMBU – is Norway’s first Centre for Excellence in Education in spatial planning. Based at the Faculty of Landscape and Society, it advances innovative, practice-oriented teaching across urban planning, landscape architecture, and property development. SITRAP promotes active learning, collaboration with real-world professionals, and interdisciplinary approaches to complex societal challenges like sustainability and climate change. Through case-based learning, digital tools, and national outreach, the centre enhances both student engagement and educational quality. SITRAP also serves as a national resource for improving planning education across institutions in Norway.
