Research Council of Norway Opportunities

The Research Council lists a NOK 4.7–7.4 million funding scale and 36–48 month project duration. Eligible costs can include payroll and indirect expenses, establishment/additional costs for the stay abroad, equipment and operating expenses, with up to four return trips between Norway and the host country listed among eligible operating costs.

Only approved Norwegian research organisations may apply. The project manager must have submitted a doctoral thesis before application, complete the doctorate before project start, normally be no more than seven years after PhD defence, meet the new-mobility rule, and satisfy the stated connection-to-Norway requirement.
