Why study maritime exchange courses at USN? 

Norway has one of the most complete maritime business sectors in the world, the Norwegian Maritime Cluster.  USN is one of the leading academic institution within this cluster.  We offers a full set of bachelor-, master- and PhD programs related to maritime operations and management. 

Our MSc Maritime Management program is a 2-year (120 ECTS) programme. One semester (autumn semester, 2nd year of the program) is offered as a course package (30 ECTS) for exchange students coming from similar type of master programs elsewhere.  

What you will learn
