In a global context, Norway is located in a peaceful corner of the world, offering some of the most spectacular nature of Northern Europe. Our environments are quiet and safe. Our surroundings inspire you to enjoy the beauty of the Nordic nature – the mountains, the coastal line and the fjords!
We offer an informal and student friendly environment. Our campuses are small with an open-door policy where our staff dedicates time and attention to you.
Our programmes are focused on practical study methods with a problem-based approach that should help you prepare for real-life situations.
Many international students come to USN each year. Either to take a full degree programme, or as exchange students for one or two semesters.
In January 2025, four bachelor students from Pune, India travelled to Norway as part of the HEIN project at the Department of Nursing and Health Sciences. Here they describe their experiences from the exchange.
