Description :
Bergen, Norway’s former capital, is a lively city surrounded by hills and fjords and populated by a large number of students that give it an active social scene. Bergen has everything you'd want from a city, yet sits on the doorway to unspoiled natural landscapes. It also connects to Oslo by train; one of the prettiest train rides in Europe. Students who only speak English will find Norway a comfortable destination where they can easily communicate with locals and navigate daily life.
The University of Bergen (UiB) is an internationally recognized leading research university. UiB offers a very wide selection of courses in English, including many STEM fields, and is an internationally leading research university. If accepted for exchange at the University of Bergen, UNO students may also apply to study Arctic Biology, Arctic Geology, Arctic Geophysics, and/or Arctic Technology at UNIS Svalbard in Longyearbyen. UNO sends and receives students from the University of Bergen through the MAUI-Utrecht Consortium, which was established in 1998 with UNO as a member institution.
