Faculty of Arts and Education

The Faculty represents something quite novel among Norwegian Universities. For the first time profession-oriented study programmes of such as the general teacher’s training and the pre-school teacher’s training have been incorporated into a university.

The Faculty also includes two centres of expertise with national responsibility for research into reading sciences and behaviour, in addition to university internal tasks. The centres help strengthen the science of education community at the University of Stavanger, and include expertise on subject didactics.
