The Norwegian Artistic Research School


Through the Norwegian Artistic Research School PhD students from all Norwegian higher education institutions in the Arts meet to share and discuss their ongoing research projects, across fields like fine art, music, film, theatre, dance, and architecture.

 

The objective of the Norwegian Artistic Research School is to give PhD students an introduction to methods, theory and research ethics, as well as training in disseminating the results of artistic research. The joint professional training is intended to support the research fellows’ artistic PhD project and contribute to professional depth and breadth. 

 
By offering an unparalleled space for professional training and sharing of knowledge, cutting across diverse artistic disciplines, the research school will enhance the research fellows’ own doctoral work and contribute to further development of ‘the Norwegian Model’ for artistic research. This model takes art and the artistic practice as its point of departure and is characterised by reflection and cross-disciplinary communication and cooperation. 
 
The research fellows will acquire knowledge of and skills and competence in artistic research in accordance with the Norwegian Qualifications Framework for Lifelong Learning (NKR).
 
The Norwegian Artistic Research School was established in 2018 and is a collaboration between The Directorate for Higher Education and Skills and accredited Norwegian educational institutions with study programs that lead to a PhD degree in Artistic Research.
