The Norwegian Student Choral Society (Norwegian: Den norske studentersangforening) is a Norwegian male choir.

It was founded in 1845, and is the oldest choir in Norway. The initiative was taken by Johan D. Behrens, and conductors throughout its history include Behrens, Halfdan Kjerulf, O. A. Grøndahl, Sigurd Torkildsen and Sverre Bruland. It is the official male voice choir at the University of Oslo, but is open to all male academics.[1]

Conductor from 2003 was Thomas Caplin.[1] Conductor since 2009 is Steffen Kammler.[2]
