RVS normally hosts three courses each year: 

  • Spring course, centred on a current and relevant theme across academic disciplines. Usually held at one of the partner institutions campuses, with one overnight stay. 
  • Summer school, with the three recurring themes Theory/Analysis/Argumentation. Held at Metochi Study Centre (UiA) at Lesbos, Greece, one week mid August. 
  • Fall course, centred on a current and relevant theme across academic disciplines. Usually held at one of the partner institutions campuses, with one overnight stay.

RVS work hard to make the course fees as low as possible. Members only pay for their own travel and food/accommodation. We aim to further subsidize the fee, and also to even out the costs for participants coming from other cities than where each course is held.

Ca. cost for Spring and Fall course: NOK 1 000 - 2 000. 

Ca. cost for Summer school: NOK 12 000 - 15 000. Includes group travel from Oslo to Lesbos, all travel and accommodation and almost all meals during the week.
