Inga Berre (born 31 July 1978) [1] is a Norwegian applied mathematician who studies numerical methods for the partial differential equations used to model fractured geothermal systems and porous media more generally. She is a professor in the department of mathematics at the University of Bergen, [2] a scientific advisor to the Chr. Michelsen Institute in Bergen, [1] and a leading researcher on geothermal energy in Norway. [3]
Berre earned a candidate degree in mathematics from the University of Bergen in 2001, and completed a doctorate (Dr. Sci.) in 2005. [1] Her dissertation, Fast simulation of transport and adaptive permeability estimation in porous media, was jointly supervised by Helge Dahle, Knut-Andreas Lie, Trond Mannseth, and Kenneth Hvistendahl Karlsen. [4]
She joined the University of Bergen faculty as an associate professor in 2006, and was promoted to full professor in 2013. In 2018 she became chair of the Joint Programme Geothermal of the European Energy Research Alliance. [1]
Berre is a member of the Norwegian Academy of Technological Sciences, [5] elected in 2017. [1] In 2021 she was elected Council Members-at-Large for SIAM for a term running January 1, 2022 - December 31, 2024. [6]
The University of Bergen is a public research university located in Bergen, Norway. As of 2021, the university has over 4,000 employees and 19,000 students. It was established by an act of parliament in 1946 based on several older scientific institutions dating back to 1825, and is Norway's second-oldest university. It is considered one of Norway's four "established universities" and has faculties and programmes in all the fields of a classical university including fields that are traditionally reserved by law for established universities, including medicine and law. It is also one of Norway's leading universities in many natural sciences, including marine research and climate research. It is consistently ranked in the top one percentage among the world's universities, usually among the best 200 universities and among the best 10 or 50 universities worldwide in some fields such as earth and marine sciences. It is part of the Coimbra Group and of the U5 group of Norway's oldest and highest ranked universities.
