Research Education

Ph.D.

The Ph.D.-education at the Department of Psychology is part of the Ph.D.-programme at the Faculty of Social Sciences.

Student Research Programme (in Norwegian only)

Note: The continued operation of the Research Track at PSI (pilot) is on hold, and unfortunately, no new students will be admitted until further notice.

Our Student Research Programme gives the admitted students the opportunity to focus more deeply in a specific research area. The objective is to increase the recruitment of students from our departement into research and to facilitate an early Ph.D.-degree. Future clinical psychologists can this way be integrated into research at an early stage.  

Dual Competency Project (in Norwegian only)

The Dual Competency Project (DK) is a recruitment programme aimed at providing clinical psychologists with documented competence in both research (Ph.D.) and as a Clinical Specialist (Norwegian Psychological Association).

Program for Young Research Leaders

The University of Bergen (UiB), the University of Oslo (UiO), The Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) and the University of Tromsø (UiT) have joined forces to initiate a management training program for young research leaders working in the fields of psychology and pedagogy. The program aims to allow talented young researchers to develop and refine their skills as research leaders, strengthen their ability to assert themselves in the competition for national and international funding, as well as to support them in building excellent interdisciplinary research networks.

The postdoctoral programme

The goal of the postdoctoral programme is to provide professional development and contribute to build a nice community.
