Organization description The University of Bergen (UiB) is a young and modern university. Our focus on international co-operation has been essential from the beginning, and has earned the institution the reputation as Norway’s international university. Students and academics alike benefit from a rich mixture of cultures and nations on campus, which is mirrored in the high profile research fields at the university. We aim to be a national centre for development research and contribute considerably in research related to this field. Bergen is a coastal city that historically has relied on export and import of fish and fish products. It is therefore not a coincidence that the university has become a leading research institution within marine disciplines. This position will be maintained by allocating substantial resources also in the future. The university’s academic landscape is characterised by diversity. The conscious emphasis on research and tuition makes the university an important supplier of knowledge both nationally and internationally. Should you choose to study at the University of Bergen, you can rest assured that you will be positively influenced by the city and the university. We, on our part, look forward to your contribution as an international student on our campus.
