You will find candidates with education and background in geosciences in various sectors, including public administration, consultancy firms, research institutes, and private companies both nationally and internationally.
We recommend reading career interviews (Norwegian only) with former students to gain insight into the opportunities available after completing your studies.
The master's programme has close connections with a range of research institutes and private companies, including the Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate (NVE), Geological Survey of Norway (NGU), Norwegian Meteorological Institute, Norwegian Geotechnical Institute (NGI), Norwegian Polar Institute, The University Centre in Svalbard (UNIS), Centre for International Climate Research (CICERO), Norwegian Institute of Bioeconomy Research (NIBIO), Norwegian Seismic Array (NORSAR), Norwegian Institute for Water Research (NIVA), Equinor, and Hydro, among others. Many of our alumni work in these organisations after completing their studies.
The master's programme also collaborates closely with research environments and centres such as the Centre for Earth Evolution and Dynamics (CEED) and Centre for Planetary Habitability (PHAB).
