Studying online

Online studies are a flexible way of studying that makes it possible to combine studies with work and family. The online organization of the studies means that you can study from home and not have to move to the place of study. Online studies nevertheless have the same academic content as normal campus studies with regard to the syllabus, learning objectives and course offerings.

Studying online

As an online student at USN, you use one or more digital learning platforms. These give you access to teaching material and they enable participation in lectures, group work and supervision. The learning platforms also make it possible for you to partake in regular communication with lecturers and fellow students. USN provides new online students with thorough training in the various programmes used in teaching. 

Online study habits

Studying online places the same demands on good study habits as ordinary campus studies do. It is a good idea to establish good study habits as soon as possible: 

  • Plan enough time to conduct your study work! 
  • If you have full-time studies, the study work should at least correspond to an ordinary working week. 
  • Start reading the syllabus right away and be prepared for teaching/lectures. 
  • Participate in all teaching that is offered. 
  • Play an active role in teaching/lectures and ask questions! 
  • Find good study mates and actively participate in study groups. 
  • Make active use of the learning resources that are made available throughout your studies!
