DigiEd promotes research that uses educational theory til analyze how technology changes learning processes and knowledge, and explores how digitalization affects the field of education.

DigiHealth promotes exploratory and critical analyses of how digitalization affect the health and welfare sector,  and how implementation of new technology is experienced by stakeholders in the health, welfare, education and employment sectors. 

DigiTech explores the technological foundation for a digital society with emphasis on research on machine learning, artificial intelligence, industrial information technology and development and design of large and interactive information systems. 

DigiWork explores a number of interdisciplinary aspects of digitalization and its consequences on work life, working organizations and society as a whole. 

Digitalisation and Society is a broad and interdisciplinary doctoral programme that encompasses projects that in various ways address the interaction between digitalisation and society.

DigiEd encourages research that utilizes educational theory to analyse how digitalisation transforms the processes of learning and knowledge and to assess the impact of digitalisation on education.

Research within DigiHealth explores the development and the implementation of digital technologies and solutions in relation to health and welfare. 

DigiTech focuses on the technological foundation of a digital society. DigiTech's IT researchers concentrate their research efforts on machine learning, artificial intelligence, industrial IT, and the development and design of large and interactive information systems.

DigiWork captures a variety of interdisciplinary aspects and approaches on digitalisation and consequences of digitalisation in working life, work organisations and society.

Invitation to a seminar for faculty and research fellows at Østfold University College.

Cybersecurity is here to stay and with it, there is the never-ending possibility of cyber-attacks and breaches in privacy and confidentiality.

You are cordially invited to come and learn how cybersecurity affects us all, what we have learned, how we can prepare, and the translational potentials of ongoing research and teaching.

Cybersecurity is here to stay and with it, there is the neverending possibility of cyber attacks and breaches in privacy and confidentiality.

You are cordially invited to our seminar to learn how cybersecurity affects businesses and organisations, what we have learned, how we can prepare, and the translational potentials of ongoing research. 

Based on the research initiative, The Digital Society,  we have recieved accreditation for a PhD programme entitled Digitalisation and Society. The PhD programme are intended to start up fall 2023.

The research area of priority, The Digital Society, has both a steering group and a scientific leadership group.

The Research Group for Cyber-physical systems (CPSForsk) looks at systems where it is essential to observe and manage physical things. Therefore, we investigate digitalization: robots, smart houses, energy efficiency, and modern production technology. In our research we include modeling, real time systems, networks, cloud services and Internet-of-Things.

The research group focuses on developing methods, tools, and techniques to increase participation in both professional and end-user design practices in the digital society. We aim to further the agenda of making design accessible to everyone, by empowering people with tools to actively engage in and contribute to co-creative practices in the digital society. Currently, the group is involved in projects in several domains, health, education, engineering, and media, providing a diverse research environment for the group members.

In this project, we are looking at the possibility of developing decision support systems based on machine learning for several parts of the health care system.  The AI tool created would put the patient’s needs first, thus allowing the caregiver the opportunity to design the care and treatment for the patient in such a way that it would minimise treatment variations offered by different healthcare providers. The incorporation of AI in decision support would promote the utilisation of the most effective treatment program for each patient and would provide the means to compare the different treatment options provided to patients in terms of outcomes, costs and patient satisfaction.   The project is a collaborative project between the Østfold University College (HiØ), Østfold Hospital Trust, University of Borås and a number of partners within the health care system and on both sides of the Norway-Sweden border.

Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are enabling technologies for the digital society. Our group conducts both basic research to develop new methods in AI and ML, as well as apply cutting-edge methods in diverse application domains.

The project's main goal is the creation of a system based on Artificial Intelligence that can automatically transcribe any historical handwriting from Norwegian writers even if they have not been seen before, during the training phase of the system.

DeveLeP is an interdisciplinary research group with a broad focus on topics related to neurodevelopmental disorders, learning and psychological processes. The research group is led by Professor Anders Nordahl-Hansen together with Professor Andrea Jackowski and Associate Professor Anders Dechsling, all of whom are employed at the Special Education section at Østfold University College. Special Education constitutes a significant part of the research group's profile, but the group's composition, where all the college's faculties are represented, has a number of projects that focus on fields such as psychology, psychiatry, e-health research, social education, and Human-Computer Interaction
