Reading rooms, group rooms and learning centre
As a student at the Faculty of Educational Sciences, you have several study areas available. Plese see the opening hours for Helga Engs hus (UiO.no).
Group rooms
Group rooms are located in the basement of Helga Engs hus. To book a group room, see this web page about room booking for students. You have to be a student at the Faculty of Educational Sciences to book these rooms. Users of the rooms are responsible for tidying up after themselves when they leave for the day. Equipment must not be removed from the rooms.
You are also very welcome to use the open student area on the lower ground floor. Here you can work together in groups or individually.
You will also find sofa areas in the foyer and in the corridors by the seminar rooms.
Learning centre on the 2nd floor
On the 2nd floor of Helga Engs hus (room 260) you will find our learning centre, with sofas, group tables and window seats with a lovely view. Here you can work alone or collaborate with fellow students. If there are no seats available, please refer to the University of Oslo Library.
Quiet reading room on the 3rd floor
This reading room is for you who study at the Faculty of Educational Sciences (UV). Seat bookings for this reading room is made via TP (the timetable scheduling system at UiO). See information on how to book a seat and the rules that apply on this web page (UiO.no). There are also some unnumbered desks along the window facing the outside of the building that can be used without a booking.
You are responsible for clearing the desk before you leave. It is not permitted to store personal items on the desks overnight. Seats are regularly cleared, and any personal items left behind may be discarded without notice. We encourage you to store items in the lockers located in the basement of Helga Engs hus. If you have used the locker underneath the desk, the locker must be emptied before you leave. If you use the break room, you are responsible for keeping it clean and tidy. See the established reading room regulations on notices in the reading room.
Do you have any questions about the reading room? Please contact UV Student Information Centre.
