Economics PhD in Norway

Norway is a paradise for anyone who wants to study abroad for free. Public universities don’t charge any tuition fees. This policy applies to all international students, regardless of their nationality. The academic standard is very high, and professors are easy to approach, always willing to go the extra mile for their students. Additionally, classes are organised in small groups, which further improves learning and cooperation. You can choose from a wide range of English-taught programmes, and you don’t need to worry about language barriers outside of classes either, because most Norwegians speak English as a second language. Internationals should find it easy to adapt to Norway’s society, which is based on equality and fair opportunities — reflected both in the legal system and in people’s behaviour.

Economics degrees investigate all factors involved in the production, distribution and consumption of goods and services. Economics analyses both small scale (Microeconomics) and global (Macroeconomics) economic factors. Economics degrees offered by universities and colleges worldwide teach students to optimise all economic actions, to improve the well-being and prosperity of economic entities and consumers.
