The programme is carried out at the Faculty of Law, and is closely connected to the research group in criminal law.

Short description of the Programme

The programme is currently composed of three post.doc. positions, of which the first two positions have already been filled or advertised. These two projects, concerning respectively the structure of the general part of the criminal law and the conceptual challenges for the criminal law system due to the internationalisation of criminal law, are further described below. The third project is currently advertised, see further information here (switch from Norwegian ("Norsk) to English at the right side of the top menu). Closing date for applications is 18 March 2009. The programme is, due to further financing, to be expanded. Interest in the programme, ideas and ambitions of future projects, including post.doc. projects, ph.d. projects and other research projects, are welcomed and may be considered as part of future applications concerning funding, on behalf of the programme.

Due to the programme's ambition of engaging the Norwegian criminal law science in the international discussion, the programme is carried out in English.
