Overview
Overview
From 2004, the school offered an education in film and television. Students work with project-based strategic communication: how ideas are developed, processed and communicated in different channels in the workplace. In 2010, Westerdals was ranked one of the world's ten best communication schools in “YoungGuns Schools of the Decade”. In 2011, Westerdals was established as a college, and is thus one of the few colleges in the Nordic region to offer bachelor's degrees within a variety of creative communication disciplines. In 2014, Westerdals Oslo School of Arts, Communication and Technology was established as a result of the merger of the three colleges Westerdals School of Communication, NISS (Nordic Institute of Stage and Studio) and NITH (The Norwegian School of Information Technology).
