New students and staff arriving at UiA at the start of the semester.
Welcome to the University of Agder!
This website is intended for researchers and other staff arriving from all over the world, and will provide you with information on how to apply for a job at UiA, how to obtain the necessary visas and work permits, what it is like to work at UiA, and information about our two campus towns of Kristiansand and Grimstad.
These pages will give you some answers and point you in the right direction for more information. We strongly recommend that you also consult the Euraxess Norway web page for incoming researchers, which is a great source of information for international researchers coming to Norway.
The University of Agder was the first university in Norway to have been awarded the ECTS-label, a certificate proving that the university follows the EU’s recommended quality assurance routines for information about and approval of student exchange.
