It is the sports club of the students of the Technical and Natural Sciences University of Norway (NTNU) in Trondheim .
NTNUI arose on 21 April 1998 from the merger of the two students Trondheim sports clubs Norges Tekniske Høgskoles Idrettsforening (NTHI, founded on 25 October 1910) and the Allmennvitenskapelige Høgskoles Idrettslag (AVHI, established on December 7, 1962) after their respective universities NTH and AVH had been merged into the University of NTNU.
The club color of NTNUI was taken over by the retirement club NTHI and is green with yellow-black-yellow stripes.
NTNUI operates its own sports facilities on the Gløshaugen and Dragvoll campuses together with the Studentenwerk (SiT) and the university . In addition, NTNUI owns a larger hut ( Studenterhytta ) not far from the city in the Bymarka below Gråkallen , which was built by NTHI in 1913 and later converted and expanded in stages. NTNUI also maintains a network of 24 small huts ( Koiene ) spread across Trøndelag .
