The Norway Connection

Michigan Technological University is expanding their connections with Colleges and Universities in Norway.  Many possibilities exist for student exchanges, research programs, and Masters or PhD study.  This web page exists primarily for developmental contact between the schools, but prospective students may also find it helpful.

Here is a listing of the Universities and University Colleges that we are in contact with.  Again, note that we do not have formal programs in place with all of these schools.
