University of Stavanger

Du skal studere lenge i Stavanger for å rekke over alt denne regionen har å by på. Variasjon er nemlig ett av kjennetegnene ved unviersitetsbyen Stavanger. Få steder passer vel tuistklisjeen "et Norge i miniatyr" bedre enn nettopp her. Norges mest pulserende utelivsby venter på deg. UiS ligger på et 1200 dekar stort område i naturskjønne omgivelser på Ullandhaug med Universitetsbibliotek, bokhandel, kafeer, kaffebar, treningsfasiliteter og helsetjenester. Vi er spesielt stolte av SiS sportssenter på 5600 m2 som ligger sentralt på Campus.

Norway is the third largest oil and gas exporter in the world and the Stavanger-region is the undisputed oil capital of Norway. The two-year Master of Science Programme in Offshore Technology is a programme designed to meet the growing demand for skilled professionals in the offshore industry.

The study programme consists of general principles and methods that give students the tools to meet and solve challenges on an advanced engineering level, also outside the area of specialisation. Projects and problems in the programme are often taken from the offshore industry and students can avail themselves of the faculty's close contacts with the industry.

The study programme gives the candidates a foundation in mathematical science and basic engineering subjects, which will be applied within one of three different specialisations:

The programme prepares students for careers in the international oil and gas industry.

The admission requirement is a Bachelor degree in any engineering discipline. All will qualify for the specializations in either Industrial Asset Management or Risk Management.

Those with a bachelor in mechanical or civil engineering, or similar, will qualify for the specialization in Subsea Technology.
