Magnus Klausen Revang’s Education

University of Oslo

None , Psychology , August 1996 — June 1998

My entrepeneurial spirit came in the way, I never finished with a degree from the University of Oslo. My attempts to find a summer job in '98 resulted in employment at New Media Science and a career in Internet Development. Thankfully a combination of skill, persistence and pure luck led to prosperity even in the post-dotcom era.
