There are plenty of opportunities for continuing your education in the Oslo region, and many expats grab the opportunity!

University of Oslo, Oslo Met, Norwegian University of Life Science, Norwegian Business School and many more higher education institutions in the region have a range of fields of study available, and there are several other educational institutions providing quality education and training. For extensive information about studying in Norway, have a look at Study in Norway - the Official Norwegian website for internationals studying in Norway.
