H.R.H. Princess Ingrid Alexandra to become a student at the University of Oslo

The Princess has been admitted to courses at the Faculty of Social Sciences through the University of Oslo’s exchange agreement with the University of Sydney. She will start this autumn.

– We would like to welcome Her Royal Highness Princess Ingrid Alexandra to the University of Oslo, where she will find an excellent place to study and a strong academic environment. We look forward to receiving her and all the other new students this autumn, says Rector Ragnhild Hennum.

The University of Sydney is one of the best universities in Australia, and the University of Oslo has had a student exchange agreement with the University of Sydney since 2001. Over the course of 25 years, more than 100 students have been exchanged between the two universities.

– The Faculty of Social Sciences at the University of Oslo has academic environments that are world-leading in fields such as psychology and political science. Here, the Princess will be taught by highly skilled and dedicated staff, says Hennum.
