Doctoral Research Fellowship University of Oslo
Doctoral Research Fellowship
POSITION AS DOCTORAL RESEARCH FELLOWSHIP (SKO/post code 1017)
available at the Forum for contemporary history (FCH), Department of Archaeology, Conservation and History (IAKH), UiO.The position is available for a period of three years.
The research fellow position is funded by the Faculty of Humanities and is associated with the project The external dimensions of European integration. The EC/EU and its Nordic neighbours in international politics.
The project The external dimensions of European integration examines the European Community’s ascent as an international actor in international politics in the 1970s and 1980s and analyses the Nordic countries’ reaction to this development. See the FCH website for a project outline: http://www.hf.uio.no/forskningsprosjekter/fosam/om/europaprosjektet1.html.
Applicants are expected to submit a project description for a PhD dissertation on the following subject:
Norway, the EC and International Shipping
The dissertation project shall assess Norway’s reaction to the emergence of the EC as an actor in international shipping. The European Community did not establish a common policy on shipping until 1986. Through joint rules based on the articles on transport policy in the Rome treaties, and through coordination of national policies, however, the Community became an important player in the field. Following the “No” to EC-membership in 1972 shipping was one of the sectors where Norway strove for a special regime of consultation with the Community. The project shall analyse the motives behind Norway’s so-called active European policy in this sector and evaluate the country’s possibilities to influence Community policies. It will be crucial, moreover, to explore to what extent the EC had an interest in coordinating its policies with a non-member. Possible fields of specialization will be the role of international shipping in connection with discussions on a New International Economic Order. The study shall rely on documentation from Norwegian and European archives.
Requirements:
Applicants should have good knowledge of international history after 1945. A background in economic history would be an advantage. Proficiency in English and Norwegian or another Scandinavian language is required.
The successful applicant must participate in the department’s PhD programme (cf. regulations and supplementary provisions for the faculty’s PhD education). Research fellows will have their workplace and academic contact person at the department.
Shortlisted candidates will be interviewed.

Hello, I am teaching in an undergraduate College in Kolkata, West Bengal, INDIA. I intend to have an exposure to Norway. If my providence gives me an opportunity, I would like to do a Ph. D. from Oslo. As regards my educational qualification, I had finished my Bachelor of Liberal Arts programme from Spicer Memorial College Pune, Maharashtra, India with English Language Major and Religious Philosophy Minor and secured 65% and 64% marks respectively, before completing M.A. in Philosophy with 67.18% marks from the University of Poona.
Then I did my M.Phil. in Philosophy from the University of Hyderabad,Andhra Pradesh, India. I got 75% marks in M.Phil. My teaching experience in Undergraduate Colleges (2) spans over 24 years now. I think age has got a sobering effect on my personality and I claim some amount of academic maturity as well.If there is an opening for doing Ph. D. with the bestowal of a fellowship I shall engage in a competent way to do so in areas like Religion, Philosophy , Theology, Religious Study, Cultural studies etc.
Any good Samaritan to help me ?
I have already spoken my mind. Now, please let me know that what I have typed out ,surely will reach people around the world.Excuse me, I am keen to have western exposure in general, even beyond Norway.
