*Ph.D. Scholarship at the Dept. of Computer and Information Science*

One Ph.D. scholarship is offered in the area of software engineering at 
the Department of Computer and Information Science (IDI) in the Faculty 
of Information Technology, Mathematics and Electrical Engineering, The 
Norwegian University of Science and Technology.

The research context of this work is to empirically investigate software 
developed for artistic purposes. More information about this context can 
be found at www.idi.ntnu.no/~letizia

We look for a candidate who has a master degree in informatics or 
similar and have strong enough marks to be accepted as a PhD. The ideal 
candidate can document knowledge, experience and reflection around 
research methods and their application to empirical investigations in 
public or industrial settings.

Non Scandinavian speaking persons can apply provided they can document 
willingness to learn Norwegian language and culture. The candidate will 
be affiliated to IDI. The candidate will have to be resident in Trondheim.

Award holders at NTNU are normally appointed for 4 years with 25% of the 
time spent on specified work. This work is primarily linked to teaching 
and is usually divided so that a relatively larger part is done in the 
first half of the period of the appointment.

after discussion with the employer.

The appointment will be made in accordance with the current regulations

the announced position is to obtain a PhD degree. Applicants must agree 
to participate in organised doctoral study programmes within the period 
of the appointment. The successful applicant must agree to the 
conditions laid down for public employees. A contract will be drawn up 
regarding the period of appointment and work-related duties for award 
holders.

The national labour force must reflect the composition of the population 
to the greatest possible extent. It is therefore a major political 
objective to achieve a balance of age and gender and to recruit persons 
with an immigrant background. Immigrants are encouraged to apply for 
this post.

NTNU wants to increase the proportion of women in its scientific posts. 
Women are encouraged to apply.


The application must contain information about education, examinations 
and previous experience. Certified copies of testimonies and documents 
must be attached.

Three copies of publications and any other work which the applicant 
wishes to be taken into account should also be enclosed. Joint works 
will be considered. If it is difficult to specify the input of the

the applicant's input.


The applicants should also submit a short description of the research 
s/he intends to carry out during the period of the scholarship, drawn up 
in co-operation with the department.

The application should be sent to the Norwegian University of Science
