Rudolf Steiner University College (no|Rudolf Steinerhøyskolen; RSH) is a state-accredited and state-funded private university college in Oslo, Norway.
It was founded in 1981 and is recognised under the Law for Private University Colleges and is fully state-funded (state funding increased gradually from 50% in 1983 to 100% from 1997 onwards). The university college offers bachelor's degrees in Waldorf education for teachers and kindergarten teachers, a master's degree in Waldorf education, and various other courses.[1] [2] It is organised as a non-profit foundation, and its board of trustees is chaired by Cato Schiøtz.[3]
In cooperation with the Alanus University of Arts and Social Sciences (Germany), the university college publishes the international academic journal Research on Steiner Education.[4] It is also involved in cooperation with East European countries, hosting the International Waldorf Summer Seminar.[5]
Since 1994, the former Berle School in Professor Dahls gate 30, Frogner, has served as its main building.[6] The college also has a campus in Fyresdal.
