Courses like social anthropology, globalization and development, cultural studies and sociology will help you to analyze and understand these processes.

Global and national focus

The global community will have a central place in the one year programme, while the Norwegian welfare system and multicultural Norway will also be studied and discussed.

Possibilities

The programme can be taken as an independent one year programme, or it may be part of a three-year Bachelor of social studies. With a final bachelor, you qualify for admission to our Master's degree in Global Studies. Some choose to use the year's study as part of a teacher education. Through the study you get the knowledge that is sought in different parts of the workforce, both in the public and private sectors.
