Candidates interested in fully funded PhD positions can check the details and may apply as soon as possible. Interested and eligible applicants may submit their online application for PhD programs via the University’s Online Application Portal.
1. Fully Funded PhD Position in Law
Summary of PhD Program:
There is a vacant position as a PhD fellow or Postdoctoral Fellow connected to the Centre on the Europeanisation of Norwegian Law (CENTENOL). The research at CENTENOL will develop new knowledge about EEA law and its impact on Norwegian law. The position is linked to the center’s work package on labor law. The position is a fixed-term contract. The term of employment for the position is 3 years, which can be extended to 4 years if the applicant is qualified to teach in compulsory courses in the Master’s program at the Faculty of Law.
Application Deadline: 1st October 2024
2. Fully Funded PhD Position in Remote Sensing and Machine Learning of Snowpack Properties
Summary of PhD Program:
The successful candidate will work on integrating time series of optical and SAR satellite imagery within a deep learning machine learning framework to develop a novel method for estimating snowpack properties from Earth Observational data at high spatial and temporal resolutions. This will involve training a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) model to link surface processes with layers within the snowpack, as well as predicting snow depth, snow water equivalent, and the stratigraphical characteristics of the snowpack in Western Norway. The SnowAI project also includes using low-cost sensors to monitor snowpack properties in real-time, and collecting UAV, geophysical, and in-situ field data, all of which will be used for model calibration and validation purposes.
Application Deadline: 29th September 2024

3. Fully Funded PhD Position in Philosophy
Summary of PhD Program:
The main purpose of the PhD position is to complete a doctoral degree, which qualifies for independent research and other forms of employment that demand specific competency. The duration of the PhD position is four years, of which 25 per cent of the time comprises other, career-promoting work associated with teaching, dissemination of results and administration. A substantial part of such work will include teaching, supervision and participation in assessment and examination at the Examen philosophicum and/or other introductory courses at the Faculty of Humanities. A plan for this part of the position is developed in collaboration with the Department at the very beginning of the employment period.
Application Deadline: 16th September 2024
4. 15 Fully Funded PhD Position in targeting RNA with small molecules
Summary of PhD Program:
We invite applications for 15 three-year PhD fellowships open to doctoral students recruited internationally. The projects are in fields spanning from molecular microbiology, over molecular and structural biology (using NMR, X-ray crystallography, and cryogenic EM), and computational, organic and medicinal chemistry to assay development, fragment and high-throughput screening.
In recent years it became increasingly evident that RNAs constitute promising macromolecular drug targets for small molecule drugs. By targeting upstream RNA, current undruggable protein-mediated pathways could be effectively modulated thereby opening for innovative therapies that may redefine the treatment strategies for a range of conditions.

5. Fully Funded PhD Position in Biomedicine
Summary of PhD Program:
At the Faculty of Medicine, Department of Biomedicine, a full-time PhD-position is available for a period of three (3) years. The position is part of the project “Novel genetic integrin a11 mouse models: closing in on cardiac fibrosis ”, funded by Nasjonalforeningen for folkhelsen. In the group of Prof. D. Gullberg, there is an interest in understanding the role of integrin alpha11 in tissue and tumor fibrosis. In a close collaboration with groups at the University of Oslo the and University of Oulu, Finland, the group has an ongoing collaboration to investigate the role of integrin alpha11 in human and mouse cardiac fibrosis.
Application Deadline: 15th September 2024
6. Fully Funded PhD Position in Geodynamics and Surface Processes
Summary of PhD Program:
This PhD project aims to quantify and model the 3D structure and evolution of the Southern Pyrenees foreland fold and thrust belt and its associated surface process response. The structural style of foreland fold and thrust belts (FTB) as observed in the Southern Pyrenees is highly variable in width, structural style, and topography. Long term sediment input onto the foreland basin combines with short-term mass wasting events possibly resulting from large catastrophic seismic events. How short and long-term deposition affect the evolving thrust belt is unclear. The aim of this project is to understand how pre-existing extensional structure, distribution of the salt decollement horizons and climate driven short- and long-term changes in sediment input control evolving FTB structure and associated sediment routing systems.
Application Deadline: 15th September 2024
7. Fully Funded PhD Position in Geodynamics and Surface Processes
Summary of PhD Program:
This PhD project aims to quantify and model the 3D evolution of the southern Andes foreland foldand-thrust belt. The structural style of the foreland fold and thrust belt (FTB) as observed in the external parts of the Andes shows significant along strike variability in width, structural style, and topography that appears linked to pre-existing structure (i.e., the so-called broken foreland and extensional inheritance), to variations in available shale and / or salt decollements, and to variable sediment input. The relative importance of these controls, the consequence for 3D variations in FTB structure, and how the resulting topography controls sediment routing systems are unclear.

8. Fully Funded PhD Position in high-resolution sedimentary dynamics of rifts during rapid climate change
Summary of PhD Program:
This PhD project aims to investigate the stratigraphic signature of rift basins with respect to the role of short-term (<100 kyr) climate change on syn-rift depositionalsystems orthe coupling between climate-driven changes in surface processes (erosion/sediment supply) and rift deformation. The initial objective is to analyse the sedimentology and stratigraphy of an active rift where it is possible to constrain tectonic and climatic controls at high resolution, and where the sediment source areas are still preserved, such as the Corinth Rift, Greece. The PhD candidate will then simulate the stratigraphic architecture of syn-rift depositional systems using tectonic, climatic and sediment supply parameters derived from the Corinth Rift (Years 1 and 2).
Application Deadline: 15th September 2024
9. Fully Funded PhD Position in Geodynamics and Surface Processes
Summary of PhD Program:
This PhD project aims to quantify and model the 3D response of active rift evolution to surface processes in the Corinth Rift system. The currently active Corinth Rift is one of the best documented rift systems on Earth with high resolution mapping of both onshore and offshore fault and basin structure constraining its evolution. The rift system localizes deformation in the Gulf of Corinth with earlier rift faults onshore towards the south. However, it is unclear what controls the migration of rift faults in time space and progressive localisation of deformation. Main objectives of this project are to understand how progressive shifting of depocenters towards the present Gulf feedbacks into rift fault formation and migration and how inheritance and surface processes control 3D rift fault growth, linkage, and stratigraphic architecture.
