Bassam Hussein
Om
Bassam Hussein is a professor of project management at the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering, Engineering Faculty. His research interests include topics like project success, complexity, blended learning, project-based learning, digital transformation, unlearning, and organizational learning. With over 30 years of experience as an educator, advisor, and researcher, Hussein has contributed to both academia and industry. Hussein worked on innovative pedagogical approaches, pioneering blended learning models widely adopted in Norwegian executive training programs. He also played a key role in standardizing project management curricula across European universities, leading to the establishment of the MSPROMAN master’s program. His excellence in education was recognized in 2016 when he was named one of Norway’s top ten outstanding lecturers. He was also named an Excellent Teaching Practitioner in 2023 at NTNU.
His research also spans digital transformation projects, addressing challenges such as uncertainty, organizational structures, and technological hurdles. He collaborates extensively with Ph.D. students, master’s candidates, and industry partners, investigating AI and machine learning applications in learning and knowledge management. His framework on project success, developed with over 120 business professionals and 30 Norwegian projects, provides a tailored approach to project management. His longitudinal research on project learning, based on a 28-billion-kroner oil and gas project, offers critical insights into cross-project learning and post-project reviews.
Currently, he leads a mega-project portfolio coordination initiative (2023–2027), focusing on digital tools in knowledge management to enhance project synergy. His recent work explores project-based unlearning, identifying strategies to discard outdated knowledge for improved adaptability.
Professor Hussein serves as an associate editor for the International Journal of Project Organisation and Management and the International Journal of Project Management and Productivity Assessment (IJPMPA). He is also a member of the international editorial review board for the International Journal for Information Systems and Project Management. And serves as a reviewer in several leading journals in management including Journal of management in Engineering, International journal of construction engineering and management. Internationally, he has been involved in several programs and initiatives in collaboration with universities in Europe such as EuroPIM, ManDEE, Nomadtrail and ProDiT, both as an expert and as a work package leader. His research continues to bridge the gap between academic theory and industrial practice, making a lasting impact on the field of project management.
In 2025, the Board of the Student Society in Trondheim (Studentersamfundet i Trondheim) awarded Professor Hussein their honorary membership in recognition of his outspoken efforts to raise awareness and mobilize against the ongoing genocide in Gaza.
