The University of Bergen does research and educate master- and PhD-candidates

The University of Bergen is a world leading university in marine science and technology. UoB participates in CRIMAC with three departments: the Department of Biological Sciences, the Department of Physics and Technology, and the Department of Mathematics.

The Department of Biological Sciences oversees the supervision and education of two PhD candidates (one funded by UoB and the other by the Research Council of Norway), as well as the supervision and education of master's candidates, all focusing on "Ground truthing methods" related to organisms and targets that produce broadband acoustic backscatter. The Department of Physics and Technology is involved in supervising and educating two PhD candidates (one funded by UoB and the other by the Research Council of Norway), as well as master's candidates, within fisheries acoustics. The Department of Mathematics is supervising and educating one PhD candidate (funded by the Research Council of Norway) and master's candidates in machine learning for acoustic target classification.

UoB has established a longstanding collaboration with the Institute of Marine Research (IMR) and other relevant centre partners. The supervision and education of master's and PhD candidates are conducted through a collaborative effort between UoB, IMR, and other centre partners.
