Forskerlinjen i psykologi is a special program at UiT for profesjon and masters students who are interested in doing high-quality research in psychology.
The forskerlinje program allows students to complete full-time research alongside their professional or masters studies. This gives in-depth experience with the research process and can be considered the first step towards obtaining a PhD. Available projects span all psychological disciplines. The program is open to both UiT students and those from other universities in Norway and internationally.
Applications are accepted once a year in spring with a deadline of 1st March (see How to apply for more information).
We have arranged a meeting on 5th February 2026 (kl.16:00) when you can find out more about the projects and ask us questions: Forskerlinje Pizza Party
