The Geoscience Student Council (GFU) promotes the students’ interests both academically and socially, and serves as an active link between the students and the Department of Geosciences. The members of the student committee are elected by the students at a general assembly. GFU represents the students on boards and committees at the department.

GÆA Norvegica is one of the University of Oslo’s oldest student associations. It was founded as early as 1935 with the aim of bringing students together both academically and socially. Since then, it has brought together students across study programmes and helped create a good study environment. The association is simply called GÆA, and many students are actively involved in it.
