Flight
First/ business class flights are not covered if other tickets are available.
Accommodation
The faculty pays accommodation from the day before the defence to the day after. Expenses for travel companions will not be covered.
Transportation
We ask visiting opponents to use public transport, as far as possible. Taxis should only be used when public transport makes travel difficult. Between Oslo Airport and Oslo city centre, the airport train is the fastest and most affordable means of transport and uses approx. 25 minutes to Oslo city centre. The airport train (flytoget.no) leaves every 10 minutes from Oslo Airport and Oslo Central Station/ Nationaltheatret. Nationaltheatret station is centrally located with a short distance to OsloMet.

- Assessment of the thesis is remunerated with 30 hours.

- The second opponent is additionally remunerated with 15 hours for their opposition.
