NMBU
The Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU), formerly the University of Life Sciences (UMB) and the Norwegian School of Agricultural Sciences (NLH), is located in Ås in Akershus and is the central and leading research and education institution within bioproduction, environment and landscape. The university has several research institutes and academic communities within landscape, agriculture, forestry and horticulture, animal science, natural resource management, development studies, economics and technological subjects. NMBU has 5,000 students and 1,500 employees. Until 2019, the university had a separate campus for the veterinary communities in Oslo, before these were co-located at Ås.
The Norwegian School of Agriculture was founded as the country's third higher education institution in 1859, the first being the "Free Mathematical School in Christiania" (Krigsskolen), while the second was the University of Oslo. Early on, the school at Ås also had a professorship in economics, the second in the country. This was to emphasize the importance of primary industries also within economic research. Land management is an important part of NMBU's subject areas. As early as 1897, a study program in land use planning was established - today called land use planning. NMBU has Europe's oldest education in landscape architecture, established in 1919. When Norway received a nationwide planning and building act in 1965, a position was created in land use planning. At the Department of Mathematical Sciences and Technology, candidates (engineers) are educated in various disciplines.
The school at Ås received college status in 1897 and university status on January 1, 2005. Until January 1, 2005, the school was called the Norwegian School of Agriculture (NLH). From 2014, the institution was named the Norwegian University of Life Sciences after the merger with the Norwegian School of Veterinary Medicine (NVH).
