Norway –Standard of living, highest in the world!

A buoyant economy, high levels of education high life expectancy and the Norwegian focus on quality of life all contribute to Norway’s development. The world Economic forum has ranked Norway as one of the top 20 most competitive countries in that world for the last 4 years. Santa Monica Consultancy has been facilitating higher studies in abroad nations since years.

Norway’s economic growth has been fueled by an abundance of natural resource, including petroleum exploration and production, hydroelectric power, and fisheries. International shipping and the offshore oil industry are typical examples of successful industries that are important areas of research or Norwegian institutions.


Norway is one of the countries confirming to the Bologna process guidelines for higher education in Europe. As a government policy to encourage international students, Norwegian Universities and state Universities do not charge tuition fee.  Although the Master’s program rendered in English, International Students require a basic understanding of the Norwegian language and this is assisted through the language component during the course of study.
