About the Faculty of Humanities
The Faculty of Philosophy was one of the four original faculties at the University of Oslo. In 1861, however, this faculty was divided into two new faculties, The Faculty of Arts and The Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences. In January 2005 the Faculty was renamed The Faculty of Humanities.
The fields of study covered by The Faculty of Humanities range from the classical civilizations of Antiquity up to the modern world and the cultural aspects of its technology. The variety manifests itself in the nearly 80 different subjects offered: European and Asian languages, linguistic and philological studies, area studies concentrated on the history and culture of particular regions, aesthetic studies, data- and media-studies as well as a large and diverse group of cultural, historical and philosophical subjects.
