Bibbi Omtveit

I wish to contribute with a holistic perspective on education and professional collaboration. With experience from both practical fields and academia, I will work to ensure that various professional environments and voices are heard in the faculty board.

I am a Ph.D. Fellow in the programme Innovation for Sustainability, affiliated with the Department of Art, Design and Drama. I am educated as a lecturer in arts and crafts, and have taught in secondary school, as well as supervised master's students and been an external lecturer at OsloMet since 2016.

I have ten years of experience as an editor of the educational journal FORM, published by the interest organization Art and Design in Schools. There, I worked at the intersection of professional development, dissemination, and professional political work, gaining good insight into organizational work.

Åse Berg Dybvik

I would like to be a member the faculty board, because I want to help solve the challenges the sector faces together, whether it is the climate crisis or international unrest. As a student, I served on several committees at the faculty and now I want to contribute again, so that more groups are heard in matters that concern them. I believe my knowledge of Oslo as a student city and my experience working interdisciplinarily will benefit the board.

I am temporarily employed as a project coordinator for Visningsarena, an art dissemination project on campus for the entire university. In addition, I work with the historical collection, other strategic projects, and practice administration at the Department of Art, Design and Drama. I have a bachelor's degree in Art and Dissemination from EST, a vocational school degree from Einar Granum School of Fine Art, and have worked in the art collection of the Norwegian Parliament.

In 2021/22, I was the Learning Environment Officer in the student parliament at OsloMet, I led the Learning Environment Committee, followed up the delegation to OsloMet in the Welfare Council, and served on the sustainability committee. In my current job, I follow up external suppliers and actively work with OsloMet as a professional dissemination arena for art, design, and research. I have experience working broadly to gather knowledge bases and how to kickstart new projects to include students and staff at the university.
