Oslo

Kristiania University of Applied Sciences is one of the oldest private institutions

of higher education in Norway, established by Ernst G. Mortensen in 1914 as

Norway’s first correspondence school, «Norsk Korrespondanseskole» (NKS).

In recent years, Kristiania University of Applied Sciences has merged with

several of Oslo’s strong providers of higher education. We are now organized

in five Schools, covering diverse fields such as performing arts, design,

information technology, health sciences, business, communication and many

others.

The School of Arts, Design, and Media is

closely linked to the field of practice, and knowledge production

is closely related to both research and practice. The study programmes are

practice-based, and knowledge production is closely intertwined

with research conducted through practice. The Schools’ study programmes

emphasize collaboration among students across various art disciplines. Both

bachelor and master’s degrees are offered.

Incoming exchanges

We hold the Erasmus+ Charter for Higher Education, are active participants in the Nordic exchange programme NordPlus, and hold a variety

of bilateral exchange agreements. We accept up to 4 exchange students per year on the E:UTSA partnership. Read about an incoming exchange to Kristiania at www.kristiania.no/exchange
