#60 - Branko Mitrovic: The Classical Architecture Education Renaissance in Trondheim


Listen Later

In today's episode, professor Branko Mitrovic tells us about the battle to teach classical architecture at NTNU in Trondheim, Norway. Here, one student prompted Branko to start teaching Classical architecture, which started a movement in the university, a study association. Might this be the beginning of a return of the Classical curriculum at architecture schools?

Branko Mitrović is a professor of architectural history and theory at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim, Norway. He has been involved in the classical movement since the late 1980s. Professor Mitrović has PhDs both in Architecture and Philosophy and has been a recipient of research fellowships from the Harvard University, Canadian Centre for Architecture, the Humboldt Foundation, the National Gallery (Washington DC) and the Clark Art Institute. He is the author of eleven books and has received the Humboldt Research Award for his work in architectural history.
