New Erasmus+ Partnership:  University of Oslo

We are thrilled to announce our new Erasmus+ cooperation with the University of Oslo’s Department of Social Anthropology, a globally recognised centre of excellence in ethnographic research and teaching.

Students participating in this exchange will have the opportunity to explore key contemporary issues such as migration, climate change, activism, and global political economy, while developing strong qualitative research skills in an international academic environment.

Based in Norway’s vibrant capital, participants will benefit from the University of Oslo’s dynamic research community and gain invaluable cross-cultural experience. >> read more
