PhD in Economics

3-5 PhD Research Fellow positions (SKO 1017) for the PhD programme are available at the Department of Economics.

The appointments are for a period of 4 years with 25% teaching and administrative duties. PhD Research Fellows will automatically be admitted to the Faculty of Social Sciences' PhD programme and benefit from the Faculty’s organized research training.

One position is funded by the Norwegian Centre for International economics and requires that the candidate’s research interests and project proposal are related to international economics and/or development economics.

The remaining positions are not linked to specific topics or research projects. Applications from candidates in all fields of economics are encouraged, in particular in fields where the department has a strong research base and supervision capacity.
