The Hamar campus is situated in the city of Hamar, a vibrant urban area with 80,000 residents. Located just over an hour from Oslo and less than an hour from Norway's main airport, the campus serves approximately 3,000 students and 300 staff. The region, known for its stable climate, diverse landscapes, and rich cultural history, offers year-round recreational opportunities. Nestled between Lake Mjøsa and the mountain ranges, it’s perfect for activities like hiking, cycling, golf, fishing, and both cross-country and alpine skiing.
