Edit your profile page

Employee profile pages are widely used by colleagues, students and potential national and international partners. If you are applying for research funding, it’s highly probable that your profile page will be visited, so it is important to keep it updated.

To edit the profile page: Click My profile in the main (top) menu, here, or in Innsida.

Contact info and photo

  • Name, job title, unit and email: You can adjust how your name is displayed if you wish, removing middle names you don't use for example. Feel free to enter a descriptive job title, such as Study Supervisor instead of Senior Consultant.
  • Phone number: NTNU expects employees’ work phone and contact information to be visible. Though some may have a good reason for hiding their work phone number on the publicly accessible profile, it will remain visible to employees and students who are logged in to Innsida.
  • Office and map link: Keep your office location up to date. Use the building and room search options to ensure an accurate campus map link for those who need to find your office.
  • Other profile pages: Link to Google Scholar, LinkedIn, Instagram, blogs or other relevant websites where you maintain a profile.
  • Photo and press photo options: Click on the picture to add or change your profile photo. Strongly consider adding a link to a press photo using the option under your regular profile photo. Fotoware works well for that (Norw. only).
