NOVA University Network

NOVA University Network logo

The Nordic Forestry, Veterinary and Agricultural University Network – is a platform for efficient and innovative Nordic cooperation. The member institutions of NOVA are nationally commissioned to develop expertise and deliver knowledge in the fields of agriculture, animal sciences, forestry, veterinary medicine, food sciences, environmental sciences, aquaculture, and related biosciences.

It supports the understanding of major global challenges from a Nordic perspective by offering high-quality PhD-level courses in agriculture, forestry, and veterinary sciences, and by helping PhD students, veterinary specialists, and researchers build strong international scientific networks.

NOVA aims to:

  • Enhance the quality and broaden the scope of teaching.

  • Promote greater resource efficiency and reduce teaching costs.

  • Facilitate collaboration in scientific areas where member institutions have limited resources.

  • Respond effectively to the rapid expansion of scientific knowledge and the increasing need for specialization.

NOVA collaborates closely with The Baltic Forestry, Veterinary and Agricultural University Network, BOVA UN, and encourages course organisers from NOVA to jointly plan courses with colleagues from BOVA universities.
