PhD research scholar positions

NHH PhD

NHH Norwegian School of Economics announces the availability of a limited number of PhD research scholarships.

20.12.2012 - Ed.


These scholarships are available for the six specializations in the PhD programme at NHH; Accounting and Auditing, Economics, Professional Communication, Finance, Management Science, and Strategy and Management.

Each scholarship is for a period of four years and combines taking a PhD programme at NHH with working as a research scholar. PhD research scholars are required to work as a teaching and/or research assistant for the department they are admitted to on enrolling in the PhD programme. The work requirement corresponds to 25 % of a full position a year, with the remaining 75 % being dedicated to the successful completion of a PhD.

The annual salary for PhD research scholars is set according to the Norwegian State Salary Scale: State Salary Scale 50, which is currently 416 300 NOK gross (approximately 56 520 Euro or about 73 883 USD). The scholarships are subject to Norwegian taxes and benefits, including health care provision and membership of the Norwegian Public Service Pension Fund.

Applicants must fulfill the admission requirements of the PhD programme. Qualified applicants with research proposals that fit best with the research interests of the department concerned will be prioritized. The prioritized research areas within Accounting and Auditing, Economics, Professional Communication, Finance, Management Science, and Strategy and Management are outlined in the programme information provided for each of the six specializations. In the event of equivalent qualifications, female applicants will be given preference.

Further information about the PhD programme and admission requirements can be found at www.nhh.no/phd. Enquiries regarding admission requirements, PhD research scholarships, application procedures, and so on, may be directed to the PhD admission office at NHH: phd@nhh.no.

The application for the PhD research scholarships is combined with the overall application to the PhD programme. All applicants to the PhD programme will automatically be considered for scholarships, unless they request otherwise. The deadline for the current round of applications is 1 February 2013.
