A positive learning environment for you is a very large collaborative project between staff and students. That's why we need you to communicate with us and use us as a point of contact when you need support. In this way, we help each other.

Our most important points of contact are:

Study Guidance

At MN (the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences), you can receive study guidance on opportunities, motivation, and reflection concerning choices or challenges related to your studies. We offer general study guidance at MN-studyinfo, program-specific or subject-specific guidance at the institute, or guidance on exchange programs with MN-International. You can book a guidance appointment here: Guidance for applicants and students - The University of Oslo (uio.no).

ForVei

If you need to talk to someone about student life, you can book a conversation with ForVei. They talk to students about motivation, achievement, choices, and all kinds of small and big questions in life that come into play when you are a student. You can contact our ForVei advisors directly and book an appointment for guidance on the website: ForVei - The Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences (uio.no)

The Student Welfare Organisation of Oslo (SiO)

SiO Health has an interdisciplinary advisory team consisting of health-care trained staff who are also particularly knowledgeable about challenges students face. They offer consultations and many different courses. They also have good resource pages for self-help. You can read more about mental health on SiO's website: Mental Health and Counseling – SiO.

The Speak up system

We want you as a student to be familiar with the Speak up system, which is our reporting system for unwanted incidents. The ethical guidelines of UiO state that:

"At UiO, no forms of bullying, racism, discrimination, and harassment, including sexual harassment and unwanted sexual attention, are accepted, see UiO’s guidelines against harassment."

If you report, it will be anonymously and safely handled by experienced staff with special expertise in the field. You can be assured that your experience will be well taken care of.

In addition, we greatly appreciate if you give us positive feedback through this system!
