CAS currently has a network of 18 Norwegian partner institutions, including universities, university colleges, and research institutes. The partnership agreements, which last for five years and are renewable, are structured to benefit CAS, the partner institutions, and the researchers themselves.
As a CAS partner, researchers from your institution can apply as Principal Investigators (PIs) to lead 1- or 2-year projects through our two main grant programmes:
- The CAS Research Grant, designed for established researchers
- The Young CAS Grant, tailored for early-career scholars
In addition, researchers may be eligible for other CAS programmes and initiatives, such as The Hernes–CAS Mobility Grant and short-term fellowships. These opportunities are open to former PIs and fellows from CAS partner institutions.
While there is no direct cost associated with the partnership, partner institutions contribute to the collaboration by providing scholars from their institutions with fully paid sabbatical leave during their stay at CAS.
We will welcome up to two new partner institutions, with selection based on competitive review of submitted applications. The applications are processed at the CAS Board meeting in February.
Applications should be submitted to admin@cas-nor.no
