Admission Requirements
Academic Requirements
Norwegian/Nordic and international applicants should hold a BSc degree or equivalent university education either in Biology, Resource Geology or Geography. Applicants holding another related Bachelor degree may also be considered. There will be an individual evaluation of applicants.
The Bachelor degree must be in accordance with the admission requirements to one of the three specializations in this Master\'s programme.
To illustrate; a background with a Bachelor degree in Biology does not qualify for admission to MSc Natural Resources Management with specialization in Resource Geology, but may only qualify for the specialization in Biology. Thus, the Bachelor background of the applicant must be consistent with the specialization in the MSc Natural Resources Management program that you apply for.
English Proficiency: IELTS 6.5 or equivalent.
