A leading European universityThe University of Oslo (UiO) was founded in 1811, and is Norway’s old-est, premier, and largest institution of higher education. UiO has contri bu-ted substantially to research, innova-tion, and education in and outside of Norway.

The University of Oslo offers degree programmes within eight faculties: Theology, Law, Medicine, Humanities, Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Dentistry, Social Sciences, and Educa-tion. We offer more than 800 cours-es taught in English at all levels, and 40 Master’s degree programmes are taught in English.

Students at the University of Oslo have access to excellent lecture and univer-sity library facilities; the the award-winning library building has become a popular meeting place. Students at UiO live and learn in a positive and inclu-sive learning environment.

International universityOver 10 % of the student population at the University of Oslo has an interna-tional background. Oslo is an interna-tional capital with people and culture from all over the world.

A research universityThe University of Oslo is Norway’s largest research institution. Basic re-search constitutes the cornerstone of the University’s ongoing development as a research university of high inter-national standing. We believe that ex-cellence in research is a prerequisite for quality in university education, and that it is the key to the research com-munity’s ability to provide relevant responses to current challenges, to contribute to inno vation, and to engage in public and international issues.

The University of Oslo coordinates eight Centres of Excellence (SFF), a Centre for Research-based Innovation, seven Marie Curie Training Sites, three of Nor-way’s foremost museums as well as a decentralised centre with nodes in Tromsø and Oslo. Our research groups have been given the SFF-title for a pe-riod of ten years, and UiO’s first three SFFs were established in 2003.

Nobel Prize laureates Four researchers at the University of Oslo has been rewarded with Nobel prizes for their research, more than all the other Norwegian universities.

• Ragnar Frisch (1895-1973) was awarded the very first Nobel Prize in Economics in 1969.

• Odd Hassel (1897-1981) was awarded the 1969 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

• Ivar Giæver (1929- ) received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1973.

• Trygve Haavelmo (1911-99) won the Nobel Prize for his work in Econo-metrics.

The University of OsloThe University of Oslo is a renowned institution with strong academic traditions which offers high quality education and research. As a student you will have access to all of this – in the beautiful city of Oslo.

Studying in OsloThe capital of Norway is welcoming, vibrant, and cosmopolitan. Oslo offers a varied cultural life and easy access to outdoor experiences on the coast, in the forests, and in the mountains.

UiO in OsloThe University of Oslo’s original cam-pus is located in the city centre, adja-cent to the Royal Palace and the Par-liament. The main campus of Blindern, just minutes by subway, tram, or bicy-cle from the heart of Oslo, offers prox-imity to the forests and hills surround-ing the city and affords wonderful views of the Oslo Fjord. As most Nor-wegians speak English, it is easy to find one’s way around.

The city of everythingOslo is smaller than most capitals, but offers all the cultural activities one ex-pects to find in a capital as well as the beautiful nature surrounding the city and the University. The Norwegian capital is home to almost 600 000 in-habitants, and over 10 % of the entire population of Norway. Among Oslo’s 60 000 students, almost 75 % come from outside Oslo.

Fjord cityThe city of Oslo lies at the end of the 100 km Oslo Fjord and is surround-ed by sea, forests, and hills. You can reach many of the 40 islands in the Oslo Fjord by boat from downtown Oslo. The climate in Oslo is milder than the latitude suggests, and in the sum-mertime the temperature normally

exceeds 20°C. Yet, the winters are cold enough to make Oslo a popular venue for skiing.

Green and freshOslo’s many parks cover over 8 km2 of the city. Over 50 % of the city area of Oslo is covered by forest and parks, and there are hundreds of lakes within the city limits.

With public transport, you can quick-ly and easily reach Oslomarka, the for-ested and hilly areas surrounding Oslo. Here you can go hiking, skiing, kaj-akking, camping, swimming, and ex-plore the forests surrounding the city by bike.

Experience Norway from OsloIn Oslo you can combine high-quality education with unforgettable outdoor experiences, both winter and summer. Norway is known for its outstanding nature, and all of this is easily accessi-ble from Oslo.

You can travel to see the Aurora Bore-alis (“Northern lights”), experience the midnight sun, and discover the beau-tiful fjords and mountains all over the country. Students in Norway love the fresh air, quiet atmosphere, clean wa-ter and vast areas of space – and nature.

Student life

General facilitiesThe University of Oslo’s lecture rooms, laboratories, and computer labs are well-equipped and maintained, and the study facilities include state-of-the-art libraries and a wireless network zone for portable computer users. Interna-tional students often comment posi-tively on the availability and approach-ability of teachers.

Start with friendshipsAt the beginning of each semester you are introduced to a Buddy – a student who has taken responsibility for intro-ducing the University of Oslo and the city to new students. When joining a ‘Buddy group’, you quickly get to know new students during the first week of your stay.

Every semester, the University of Oslo arranges a special events programme for international students, such as mu-seum tours, hiking trips, ski courses, film evenings, and the weekly Inter-national Coffee Hour. The Internation-al Coffee Hour is a popular meeting place for international and Norwegian students and is held every Friday from 16.00 to 18.00 at the student house Chateau Neuf.

Student organisations and democracyFounded in 1813, the Norwegian Stu-dent Society, based in the student build-ing Chateau Neuf, is Norway’s oldest student association. It offers concerts, lectures, improvised theatre, club con-cepts, parties, exhibitions, and courses. Chateau Neuf has its own library, read-ing room, café, and restaurant.

As an international student at the Uni-versity of Oslo, you become a member of ISU – an independent, democratic, non-profit organisation run for and by international students. ISU publishes a newsletter and arranges academic and social events.

Student democracy at the University of Oslo is organised on many levels, from members of the Student Parliament to student representatives at the depart-ment level. Norwegian law ensures stu-dents 20 % of the members on boards and committees at the university.

Health and counsellingThe campus has student health cen-tres with general practitioners, nurses, psychiatrists, psychologists and den-tists. There is also a team of profession-al counselors to whom students can turn for advice in academic, financial or personal matters.

Stay in shape and eat wellYou can choose among 60 different sports activities in four trainingcen-tres offered by the SiO Student Sports, ranging from basketball, swimming, squash to climbing, dance and yoga. You can get a customized, individu-al training programme, participate in group training, and get-started classes.

At UiO you can eat at more than 40 on-campus restaurants and cafes with a varied selection of menus at student-friendly prices.

Budget and living costsThe national currency in Norway is the Norwegian kroner (NOK), and 1 € is ap-proximately 8 NOK. To give you an idea of the living expenses for a student in Norway, we have put together a modest budget.

There are no tuition fees at the Univer-sity of Oslo. There is a semester regis-tration fee of NOK 440 and a copy fee of NOK 100. Student housing is rea-sonably priced, and students under 30 are entitled to reduced fares on public transport. Most social events on cam-pus are either free of charge or offered at student-friendly prices. Internation-al students with satisfactory study pro-gression may be able to apply for a

part-time work permit. Internation-al students are allowed to work maxi-mum 20 hours per week.

The University of Oslo does not con-trol sources of student funding and can not assist students financially. Cost of living grants are only awarded to international students accepted for scholarship programmes. For more in-formation, see uio.no/english/student-life

Student HousingAll international students will receive guidelines on how to book student housing after admission. Internation-al students are given priority, provided they follow these guidelines.

There is so much more to being a student than studying. More than 300 active student associations, societies, and organisa-tions contribute to a rich and varied social life for students at the University of Oslo.

Total: NOK 50 000

for one semester (approximately € 7 000)

Transport: 3 000

Housing: 15 000

Food: 15 000

Books and supplies: 5 000
