Academic Terms
NORSAR Innovation understands the importance of the role that academic institutions have to play in the development of both geophysics and geophysicists.
Because of this we are happy to offer qualifying academic institutions a special academic lease that consists of the following software packages:
- NORSAR-2D
- NORSAR-3D
- SeisRoX
The academic lease (ask for the yearly fee!) is only available to qualifying institutions and cannot be split into individual packages. Before applying for a regular academic license, it is recommended to download an evaluation license.
To qualify for the academic lease, an institution must only be using the license as part of its internal research and educational program. The aim of the academic license is to provide students access to cutting edge technology through which they can accelerate their learning.
In principle, it is allowed to integrate NORSAR software in thesis work and results obtained by the software can be published. However, if the research, for example a PhD thesis, is funded by commercial partners, please contact us with an outline of your proposed project and details of previous, related works. Your proposal will be reviewed by the Research Committee at NORSAR and a decision as to whether to support your research will be made on a case by case basis. If the requirements are fulfilled, both a research and software agreements have to be signed.
If you have any questions regarding your eligibility for the academic lease or require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us on sales@norsar.com.
