The Sørlandet Foundation is responsible for the operation and maintenance of the S.S. Sørlandet. The ship occupies a significant chapter in Norwegian maritime heritage.
Learning comes alive for our students through an exceptional and compelling combination of outstanding academic study, delivered within the microcosm of a tall ship, and 20+ incredible destinations within the macrocosm of the planet.

This recognition reflects the fact that she has been in continuous service since 1927 and today proudly meets the highest of regulatory standards for ships of her class as set out by the Norwegian Flag Authorities and the International Maritime Organization. In 2013 she underwent an 8 million USD refurbishment.
