Oslo University College's main campus in Pilestredet is conveniently located in the centre of Oslo, the capital of Norway.

Oslo University College is a young, dynamic institution based on strong traditions. It was established in 1994 when the Norwegian college system was restructured and 18 smaller colleges in the Oslo area merged.

Therefore, many of OUC's degree programmes date back to the 19th century.


Description and accommodation Oslo

 
 
OsloMost courses at Oslo University College are held in the centre of Oslo. Most of the university college's activities take place in the premises located in the old Frydenlund brewery at Bislet. The premises house exercise rooms and gymnasiums available for use by students and teachers. The welfare and recreation facilities include a pub. Teachers and students run athletic clubs and are engaged in activities such as film clubs, orchestras, choirs, theatre performances etc.

The heart of downtown is on the waterfront, where cruise ships from all over the world find their way through the Oslo Fjord. There are many small islands and beaches, which during the summer can be easily reached from the city centre.

To the north, the city borders on a hilly, forested area with lakes, rivers and several thousands kilometres of paths and trails, for skiing in the winter and hiking and cycling the rest of the year. It is easy to move around in the capital even if you don't have a car. The public transport system is extensive and is the easiest means of travelling. Most people walk, cycle or use public transportation.
