Forskerprosjekt med internasjonal mobilitet (FRIPRO)

The FRIPRO Researcher Project with International Mobility supports curiosity-driven and ambitious research that can contribute to advancing the international research frontier. This call is directed at postdoctoral-level researchers who wish to spend 1-2 years at one or two foreign research organizations, combined with 1-2 years in Norway. The goal is career development and independence for the researcher, and to bring new knowledge to Norwegian research environments. The scheme supports both applied and basic research across all research fields. Projects involve an international mobility period of at least one year abroad (in segments of minimum 3 months) starting within one year of project start, followed by at least 6 months in Norway after the final international stay. Integration of the researcher at both Norwegian and foreign institutions is a key component, with emphasis on how the project and stays abroad will contribute to career development.
