Nordic PhD course in stochastic programming

NHH Norwegian School of Economics, in cooperation with NTNU Norwegian University of Science and Technology and University of Copenhagen invite to a

Nordic PhD course in stochastic programming.

Time: Week 39 (September 22-26, 2025). It is necessary to arrive on the 21st, a late evening flight out on the 26th is possible. 
Place: NHH Norwegian School of Economics, Bergen, Norway.
Credit: 5 ECTS. Requires physical presence (so no digital alternative) plus an approved essay after the course. 
Costs: There are no course fees, but we collect NOK 2200 for five lunches, drinks in the breaks plus one social dinner during the course. Must be paid upon registration. You must organize your own travel and accommodation – there is ample capacity in Bergen in September. It is best with a hotel or 
other accommodation in the city center or near NHH
Registration: Technically speaking, this course is BEA512 at NHH. You need to do two things to take part:

  1. Go here to register for the course in order to be registered as a visiting student. Under “Choose a course”, find the pointer to “Søknadsweb”. Pick “Norwegian School of Economics”. There are different ways to register. You will see that at the end there is one that only requires your email. But use one of the others if they apply to you. The course is BEA512. The registration starts around June 20, 2025
  2. You will also need to register here for us to plan for room size and food. This is where the NOK 2200 for food will have to be submitted. Under special circumstances, refunds can be made up to September 1.
