Study in Norway
Study in Norway and you can experience the best our country has to offer, such as quality education and spectacular nature. See the variety of programmes and courses taught in English at the University of Bergen.
The University of Bergen is situated in Norway's second-largest city. Our students love the fact that they can enjoy a bit of city life with plenty of cultural events and simultaneously make use of Bergen's unique opportunities for outdoor adventures.
We offer a variety of master's programmes taught in English, available for students from all over the world.
Why choose UiB?
The University of Bergen has previously received an award for Excellent International Student Satisfaction, based on almost 16,000 reviews from international students. This is only awarded to universities with an average rating of 9.0 or higher, on a scale up to 10.
Quality education
The University of Bergen offers quality tuition-free education to all students, regardless of citizenship from around the world. While Norway’s high quality of life goes hand-in-hand with a higher cost of living, the cost of living in Bergen is compensated for by benefits such as free education, quality health care, and ready access to the natural environment.
