Norwegian studies at “Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University of Iaşi

Summary/Abstract: Norwegian is considered an exotic language in Romania. However, starting with the 1990s it has been a constant interest in studying this Scandinavian language, be it for a future career, for further studies in Norway, for finding a better paid job or simply as a hobby. At the “Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University of Iaşi, the first Norwegian courses started in the academic year 2005-2006 when a language course was included in the Master’s program “German Culture in a European Context” and when Norwegian also started to be taught at the Centre of Foreign Languages of the university for anyone interested. Afterwards, the first elective courses of Norwegian were introduced for all the students of the university in 2011. Therefore, the present article is meant to show the development of Norwegian studies at the “Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University of Iaşi starting with the academic year 2011-2012 and up to 2017.
