The visiting scholarships come with a stipend of NOK 25 000 per month for up to 4 months to support travel and accommodation costs during the course of the fellowship. You can register for the scholarship here, and the deadline for registration is April 18.
Visiting scholars are mainly expected to engage in their own research when visiting the Centre, but also to contribute to the intellectual environment of The Centre for Philosophy and the Sciences by participating in seminars and workshops and by presenting in our seminar series. We will provide office space, access to the University of Oslo library and the opportunity to take part in Centre activities. Fellowships are available for international and Norwegian scholars who hold an academic position or are PhD Students, and who are working in a field relevant for CPS.
About the Centre: The Centre for Philosophy and the Sciences (CPS) fosters new interdisciplinary collaborations and the development of research and teaching at the intersection of philosophy and empirical sciences. Researchers at the Centre work at the intersection of philosophy and physics, life sciences, linguistics, mathematics, cognitive sciences, neuroscience, social science and other fields. CPS is a strategic research area funded by the Faculty of Humanities at the University of Oslo with Department of Philosophy, Classics, History of Art and Ideas as host. The Centre is also involved in several projects funded by the ERC and the Norwegian Research Council.
See more information about CPS on our website. The deadline for registration is April 18.
