We recommend that you take the time to look through all the pages related to the MSc programme as many of your questions will be answered there. Here are some quick links to help answer some of the core questions you may have:
The MSc in Energy, Natural Resources and the Environment is one of eight specialisations in the two-year Master of Science programme at NHH, and is wholly taught in English. The general structure of the programme consists of twelve courses and a thesis. Students select six courses that relate directly to the Energy, Natural Resources and the Environment specialisation and the remaining six are elective courses. Four of these elective courses can be combined to make a minor specialisation.
All Master of Science students at NHH are encouraged to take at least one semester on exchange at another leading business school elsewhere in the world. Through membership of CEMS (Community of European Management Schools) and PIM (Partnership in International Management) and through bilateral agreements, NHH has exchange partnerships with some of the leading institutions for economics and business administration in the world.
MSc students at NHH can also combine their studies with the CEMS Master's in International Management programme, and qualify with two internationally recognised qualifications
NHH is in a fairly unique position where the students themselves have taken on the responsibility for profiling NHH with potential employers and for helping their fellow NHH students find jobs, with the full support of the school.
This entrepreneurial situation has proved very successful. The unemployment rate for NHH graduates in 2005 was less than 4% six months after graduation, and the graduate average salary ranks amongst the best for masters programmes in Europe.

In Norway the best education is free. The core Norwegian cultural values of fairness and equality combined with the benefit of the wealth provided by North Sea oil, has led to the state in Norway funding a high quality higher education sector. A result of this distinctly Norwegian funding arrangement is that demand for places is high. As resources are not limitless, high admission standards ensure that although the best is free in Norway, only the best students get in.

Competition for admission to NHH is extremely tough, with only 1 in 5 applicants being offered a place to study Energy, Natural Resources and the Environment at NHH, and the students who are admitted must have excellent academic qualifications.
