Here, you will find information about what the PhD agreement is, what it contains and where it must be submitted.
The agreement signed on admission to an organised doctoral degree programme (PhD) regulates your rights and obligations in the PhD programme within the framework of applicable laws and regulations. It is therefore important that you complete and sign the agreement as soon as the admission is in order. The agreement period is equal to the funding period and is extended automatically in the event of authorised leaves of absence and sickness absence.
The completed and signed agreement must be sent electronically to the person with administrative responsibility for the PhD programme.

If you have been employed by OsloMet as a research fellow, you will be allocated an annual sum (operating funds) for three years, regardless of whether you have been admitted for three or four years. The funds will normally cover the costs of e.g. data collection, field work, books, copy editing, conferences and other necessary travel. Please check the guidelines for the PhD programme you have been admitted to for more details. You must keep an overview of how this money is spent and expenses must be documented in accordance with the faculty/centre’s guidelines.
If you are going to receive funding from an external party, this party must allocate sufficient operating funds to the project to ensure it can be completed. This must be stated in part C, section 4 of the agreement.
