(02) Fully Funded PhD Position
PhD position summary/title:–2 PhD positions, Department of Comparative Politics
The project addresses the impact of demographic change on representative democracy. The growing proportion of senior citizens across European populations increases their influence on elections and policy decisions. How does this affect the political representation of old, young, and future generations’ interests? To assess the impact of demographic change on Generational Political Pluralism in Norway, Europe, and beyond, the project investigates generational cleavages in two integral parts of policymaking: public opinion and political representation. The empirical analyses draw on a combination of observational, behavioural, and experimental data and will use a range of innovative methods like survey experiments, text analysis, and social network analysis to make descriptive and causal inferences. Read more about the project here. A detailed project plan is available upon request.
Deadline : 2nd August 2024

(03) Fully Funded PhD Position
PhD position summary/title:–PhD Research Fellow in Medical Visualization
The aim of the VASCUL-AID project is to predict the risk of cardiovascular events and progression of the vascular diseases Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) and Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) to influence the course of disease improving the patient’s quality of life and care and assisting clinicians to make better-informed decisions involving the patient. The project will identify patients who are at high risk for AAA growth or PAD progression and cardiovascular events through a trustworthy AI-driven platform (VASCUL-AID) that integrates multi-source parameters including imaging, proteomic and genomic data as well as life-style patient data from wearables to enable personalised vascular disease management. The VASCUL-AID platform consists of AI risk-prediction tools, a patient communication app and a clinical dashboard to support clinical decision-making.
Deadline : 4th August 2024
(04) Fully Funded PhD Position
PhD position summary/title:–Two PhD positions in the project “Contested frontiers of settler states”
There are vacancies for two PhD positions at the Department of Comparative Politics.
Each position is for a fixed-term period of 4 years. Of that period, at least 75% will be devoted to PhD training and research as an integral member of the exciting ERC project “Contested Frontiers: Understanding the constitutional politics of settler-state peripheries” (ConFront). The other 25% may involve teaching, supervision, and administrative tasks at the department.
The project combines political theory, constitutional law, and comparative politics to understand efforts – usually by Indigenous peoples versus settlers/states – to (re)constitute frontier jurisdictions, especially in the North American Arctic, Fennoscandic north, U.S. Pacific, and Australian tropics. ConFront consists of five team members led by the department’s associate professor of Arctic governance, Aaron Spitzer.
The successful candidates will be based in Bergen, ideally beginning autumn 2024. They will actively collaborate with other team members (including co-writing academic articles); will help conduct fieldwork and research dissemination in frontier regions; will assist with administrative responsibilities related to the project (including organization of workshops, writing deliverables, and data management); and will participate in the department’s Indigenous Peoples and Governance in the Arctic research group.
Deadline : 5th August 2024
(05) Fully Funded PhD Position
PhD position summary/title:–PhD Research Fellowship in Modern Environmental History
The position is associated with the Department’s interdisciplinary Environmental Humanities research group. This is an interdisciplinary collaboration between researchers in the fields of history, archaeology, cultural studies, linguistics, literature, media studies, political science, social anthropology, science and technology studies, and beyond. The research group’s purpose is to bring scholars together to develop interdisciplinary research projects, to expand members’ professional networks and collaboration across the humanities, and to support environmentally-themed research and other contributions from the humanities disciplines.
The successful candidate will be invited to contribute to the research group’s focus areas and to be an active participant in the research group through seminars and outreach activities. Applicants should familiarize themselves with the research agenda of the group and get in touch with the research group leader when developing their projects. The candidate will work closely with group members from multiple disciplines and should be able to think in an integrated way about environmental history and its place across disciplinary boundaries.
While the thematic and geographic scope of the proposed research project in modern environmental history (defined as after year 1700) are open, we particularly welcome applicants whose proposed project includes a transnational or global dimension. The same applies to projects exploring themes related to water, agriculture, conservation, and/or science, technology, and alternative ways of knowing. The proposed project may have interdisciplinary elements, but it must be historically oriented and employ principally historical methodologies.
Deadline : 5th August 2024
(06) Fully Funded PhD Position
PhD position summary/title:–PhD Research Fellow in applied and computational mathematics – CSSR
CSSR is a national research center dedicated to providing new subsurface knowledge and digital solutions to drastically reduce Norway’s offshore emissions.
To support the ambitions of the CSSR, this project aims to develop, analyze and implement new nonlinear iterative solvers, with the goal of exploiting models of various complexity, ranging from high-performance computing, via reduced-order models to data-driven (machine-learned) representations. In particular, we are interested in the joint applicability of such models and to what extent simpler models (possibly based on machine learning) can be integrated into full-physics simulation.
The successful candidate will contribute to research activities in the CSSR center, and in particular its work package 4. Tasks that are envisioned involve development and analysis of non-linear and linear solvers in the context of multi-model analysis of and simulation of subsurface operations. This development will build on a theoretical foundation from numerical and functional analysis, and as a starting point build on the literature related to preconditioners for Newton methods. Concrete model problems and numerical examples will be used to guide and prototype the development.
Deadline : 10th August 2024

(08) Fully Funded PhD Position
PhD position summary/title:–PhD Research Fellow in Causal Decision Making
Causality is a fast-developing area of machine learning, holding the promise to improve artificial reasoning and intelligence. Causal models can provide reliable formal tools to agents and policy-makers to evaluate alternative courses of action and design effective polices.
This project is interested in considering how causal models can be learned and exploited in the context of decision-making. In particular, it will consider the scenario in which one or more learning agents have the possibility of relying on multiple causal models describing their environment. Research will span the space of causality, causal abstraction, causal representation learning and reinforcement learning; the PhD project itself can follow multiple directions, ranging from more theoretical studies on how these models may be related and what guarantees they could provide, to more methodological research on the design of novel algorithms aimed at improving decision-making.
