Researcher mobility
Researcher mobility is essential to Norway's ability to maintain access to the international playing field. The Research Council gives priority to increasing the number of Norwegian researchers who spend time at R&D institutions abroad as well as the proportion of foreign researchers who carry out part of their research in Norway.
International scholarships
The International Scholarship Section (IS) promotes the exchange of advanced students and researchers within the framework of bilateral cultural agreements, scholarship and networking programmes for mobility and research cooperation activities between Norway and some 30 other countries.
We offer Yggdrasil mobility grants to foreign PhD students and younger post docs for studies and research in Norway and fund researcher mobility and networking between institutions from Norway and their counterparts in many other countries. The greater majority of our programmes encompasses all subjects areas.
EURAXESS Jobs Portal
On Euraxess Norway you can find career opportunities and other relevant information and assistance for mobile researchers.
