Trond Andresen

Trond Andresen is an Associate Professor Emeritus at the Department of Engineering Cybernetics, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). His research focuses on macroeconomic systems, monetary policy, and interdisciplinary applications of control theory. He has contributed extensively to debates on electronic currencies, financial crisis management, and academic governance.

Andresen’s work bridges engineering principles with socioeconomic analysis, particularly examining how control systems theory can inform economic modeling. His recent publications address topics like parallel currency systems for crisis-stricken economies, academic leadership ethics, and the role of central banks in electronic monetary frameworks. He has also authored a textbook on control systems engineering and frequently engages in public discourse through opinion pieces in outlets like Khrono.no and Adresseavisen.

His outreach activities include lectures on electronic currencies at institutions like UNAM (Mexico City) and FLACSO (Quito), alongside media appearances discussing financial policy and technological solutions for transportation systems. Andresen advocates for interdisciplinary collaboration and critical analysis of institutional structures in academia and society.
