Stord/Haugesund University College (HSH), Norwegian: Høgskolen Stord/Haugesund) is a medium sized state university college in Norway, with about 2500 students [ [http://www.hsh.no/om_hsh.htm Hsh | Om Hsh ] ] and approx. 250 employees. The university college offers bachelor and master degrees in various fields (including information and communication technology, safety management, health sciences, and marine studies) and courses for professionals. The university also has several PhD students. The university does not have the power to award doctoral degrees which must be awarded by an external institution. As the name suggests there are campuses both in Haugesund and at Stord.
It was established in 1994 when the Norwegian college system was restructured and Haugesund Sjukepleierhøgskole (Haugesund Nursing College), Stord Lærarhøgskule (Stord Teachers College) og Stord Sjukepleiarhøgskule (Stord Nursing College) merged.
Language of instruction is Norwegian, but certain courses are taught in English.
