The Open Campus is the thematic focal point for two exciting days in Oslo, because the Open Campus is at the heart of Circle U.: a digital learning platform connecting various other platforms, a gateway to the opportunities that Circle U. offers.

The Open Campus will be developed in close collaboration with Knowledge Hubs and other platforms, and with the involvement of both students and staff from various backgrounds. There are academic, administrative, technical and creative issues to be sorted out, and your competence and input is crucial to succeed.
