The University of Bergen (Norwegian: Universitetet i Bergen) is a public research university in Bergen, Norway. As of 2021, the university had over 4,000 employees and 19,000 students.[2] It was established by an act of parliament in 1946 consolidating several scientific institutions that dated as far back as 1825. It is Norway's second-oldest university, and is considered to be one of the nation’s four so-called "established universities." It has faculties and programmes in all the academic fields typical of a classical university, as well as such degree programmes as medicine and law that, traditionally, only the “established universities” are authorized by law to offer.[3] It is also one of Norway's leading universities in many of the natural sciences, including marine research and climate research. It has consistently been ranked in the top 200 or top one percent of universities in the world,[4] and as one of the best 10 or best 50 universities worldwide in some fields, such as earth and marine sciences.[5][6] It is part of the Coimbra Group and of the U5 group of Norway's oldest and highest-ranked universities.
