A University without boundaries
The NOVA University Network – The Nordic Forestry, Veterinary and Agricultural University – was founded in 1995 as a “university without walls” to increase the cooperation among the Nordic agricultural universities. Thus the NOVA University Network is a platform for efficient and innovative Nordic cooperation, exploring new ways to forge a networking university without boundaries. There are seven Nordic universities attached to NOVA. From these five are core members of the Nordic School of Agroecology/Ecological Agriculture:
Norwegian University of Life Sciences, UMB – Norway
The Royal Veterinary and Agricultural University, KVL – Denmark
The Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, SLU – Sweden
