Visit Oslo's medicine faculty!

[paulescu]

Hey!I'm a romanian medicine student,who finished 1st year of study.I'm in vacation in Oslo and i'm wondering if i could attent one or 2 courses in some of you classes.

This sounds a bit strange but in my faculty there were some people who attended our courses without being students.

Waiting for your answers.

Have a nice day

The University is also on holiday, so I doubt that they have any courses you can attend. You can contact them here: Faculty of Medicine

thank you.i know that the faculty is also in vacation but i heard the school starts in the end of august.so,that's why i asked.

i would like to meet some medicine students from oslo,do you know an organisation or something??

I suppose it is unproblematic that you attend to som classes, as a guest. You should contact the faculty and asc, it may be people at work by this time without it beeing any classes going on.

At most faculties the classes start in week 34. Or you could also just appear at one class, and asc the professor.

You can send a mail to [email protected] or [email protected].

There is not room for "outsiders" to take classes on the medical faculties in Norway unless you are immatriculated at university.

No, but the lectures are still usually open for most people.

I don't know about Oslo, but in Trondheim they're actually not. You have to be a registered student at the Faculty of Medicine to attend lectures.

Ikke vet jeg, men folk har blitt nektet å følge forelesninger uten å være medisinstudenter. Og de er tross alt ikke flere enn at man godt ser når det kommer folk som ikke er på kullet. Dessuten undervises det såvidt jeg vet delvis i små grupper.

Ja, det er vel ikkje mykje plenumsundervsísning, og kulla er ikkje større enn at utanforståande vil bli veldig synlege.

Eg kjenner ikkje medisin særskilt godt, men eg veit at ved andre profesjonsfag, har ein avkryssingsliste, kor ein må kvittere seg inn på forelesninga. Eg har sjølv gått på eit profesjonsfag kor det satt stud.ass. og kryssa oss inn. Forelesningssalen var sprengt, og då kunne ein ikkje la utanforståande ta plassen til nokon som gjekk på faget.

ok.thanks for mail adresses.ill contact them.thanks for quick reply.i'm also thinking tht shouldn't be a problem.

but one question,they have courses in english language right?at least they should have a english section.

Ha det bra!

No, the lectures are in norwegian. As we mainly educate doctors for Norway in Norway. You will have to deal with patients after very short time, so it is expected you know norwegian well enough to communicate with patients when you enter the programme.

well,a norwegian doctor told me this is one of the best faculty in Oslo.It's well known that any prestigious university has an international section.so that's why i was asked.

My faculty is also one of the bests in my country;it has a english section and french also.

There are only four medical faculties in Norway (Oslo, Bergen, Trondheim and Tromsø), none more prestigious than the other, and none of them teaches in English (Except if the lecturer is none-Norwegian, with poor Norwegian).

As I previous said: There are too few study places in Medicine in Norway, and since educating a doctor is very expensive, one is not interested in having students from other countries who only will study in Norway and leave for home country when finished Medical School. Since most, if not all, literature are in English, the students learn medical vocabulary even if lectures are in Norwegian.

The 9th semester is actually taught in English, it appears from the University of Oslo's website. However, those courses are closed to outsiders.
