NTNU (Norwegian University of Science and Technology) has announced up to 7 open PhD Research Fellow positions at the Faculty of Humanities in Trondheim, Norway. Applicants are invited to develop their own research projects together with a research group, making this a strong fit for candidates with an independent, well-defined PhD idea. The DigiKULT research group is especially interested in projects related to AI, digitalization, automation, the future of work, health technologies, and the societal implications of digital technologies. The opportunity is therefore relevant for students with interests spanning computer science, information technology, sociology, public health, and science and technology studies. This is a PhD opening rather than a scholarship announcement. The post indicates that the positions are research fellow roles at NTNU, but no stipend amount or detailed funding package is provided in the excerpt. The application deadline is 1 October 2026. Applicants should prepare a research proposal that aligns with the group’s themes and follow the official application instructions in the full call on Jobbnorge.
