(03) PhD Degree – Fully Funded
PhD position summary/title: PhD Fellowship in Public Leadership for Sustainable Transformation in Tourism
This PhD scholarship focuses on the critical role public leadership plays in the Norwegian tourism industry. Public leadership is crucial for tourism, especially in the Nordic countries, where destination management organizations (DMOs) are often publicly owned but closely linked to the tourism industry. The public leadership creates complex networks of co-creative governance solutions and power-sharing, requiring dialogue between public and private actors to ensure democratic and sustainable processes. This is particularly important as the sector must address challenges related to climate change, community resilience, and economic sustainability, especially considering the increasing importance of tourism as an economic sector in Norway.
The PhD project will investigate how public leaders manage sustainable practices, policy-making, and stakeholder collaboration in tourism. Public management is essential for handling complex conflicts of interest, ensuring long-term vision and accountability, and mobilizing resources for systemic change. This scholarship provides an opportunity to contribute to a deeper understanding of sustainable governance and offer practical insights for a fair and resilient tourism industry.
The project will employ a combination of qualitative and quantitative research methods. It can draw on various theoretical perspectives, with the most relevant fields being sustainable development, governance, leadership, management, and tourism/hospitality studies. You will work independently on the project “Promoting Responsible Public Leadership in the Norwegian Tourism Industry.” At the same time, you will collaborate closely with an academic environment with a particular interest in responsible public leadership, management, governance, sustainability, and tourism in a Scandinavian context.
Deadline : 31st August 2025
(04) PhD Degree – Fully Funded
PhD position summary/title: PhD Fellowships in Quality and Safety in Healthcare
One PhD fellowship will be hired for each of the following two research projects:
1. Improving quality and safety in healthcare through supervision and the use of artificial intelligence
Supervision is central in ensuring quality and safety in healthcare systems nationally and internationally. In Norway, there is a significant increase in the number of cases handled by the Norwegian Board of Health Supervision and the County Governors. The growing number of cases, combined with limited resources for case processing, is unsustainable and results in prolonged processing times. This affects patients, healthcare professionals, and the healthcare system. The development and application of artificial intelligence (AI) in supervisory work can contribute to innovation in supervision methodology. This may include new ways of reviewing cases, cross-case analyses, thematic inspections, and risk monitoring, and there is a need for research to support evidence-based supervision.
The aim of the project is to develop new knowledge about how AI can contribute to innovation in supervision methodology and to understand the implications for supervisory practices and for quality and safety in healthcare.
The project will consist of three studies:
- How AI can be used to prioritize risk areas within supervision activities based on existing data held by supervisory authorities.
- How the conduct of supervision can be supported by AI, including ethical challenges and opportunities, and what is needed for successful implementation from the perspective of supervisory staff.
- How AI can be used by supervisory authorities to follow up actors in healthcare services including ethical and practical challenges and opportunities for improving quality and safety. The study will also investigate how practitioners perceive new methods and international experiences with the use of AI in supervisory activities.
The appointed candidate will be affiliated with the research centre SHARE – Centre for Resilience in Healthcare. SHARE is one of eight centres at the University of Stavanger. The centre is an internationally recognized research hub within quality and safety in healthcare contributing to the development of new knowledge and measures to better define the conditions that promote high quality and safe care for patients. The project is a collaboration between SHARE, the Norwegian Board of Health Supervision, and Stavanger University Hospital. The projects will also benefit from international networks and regulatory collaborations in Europe.
2. Prehospital teamwork and simulation of complex patient pathways
Prehospital care requires rapid and effective decision-making, collaboration across different team constellations, and adaptation to unpredictable situations. This is particularly important considering the coordination between ambulance services and other actors (e.g. emergency medical communication centres, emergency departments, out-of-hours medical services). Existing training in multi-team collaboration often focuses on acute care scenarios involving high-impact injuries, typically in the context of accidents. This project will instead focus on collaboration in complex patient pathways, such as stroke care, cancer care, and elderly care. These patient groups follow different pathways, but all involve frequent interactions with services, requiring effective coordination between various teams.
The project aims to contribute new knowledge on collaboration in the prehospital setting, with a particular focus on the multi-team setting. It will further explore how simulation can be used as a pedagogical tool to improve multi-teamwork and collaboration in complex patient pathways.
The project will consist of three studies:
- Mapping and modelling of interaction patterns in different patient pathways (e.g. stroke, cancer, elderly care). The objective is to map existing patient pathways and develop case descriptions with an emphasis on prehospital collaboration.
- Development of simulation scenarios for complex patient pathways. The objective is to develop and pilot simulation scenarios adapted for different user groups to enhance their collaboration competence.
- Evaluation of simulation-based training and its impact on paramedic competence. The objective is to examine the different user groups’ transition from education to practice, focusing on both measured and perceived collaboration competence in complex patient pathways.
Deadline : 12th September 2025
(05) PhD Degree – Fully Funded
PhD position summary/title: PhD Fellowship in Algebraic and Symplectic Geometry
The PhD Fellow will be affiliated with the following project “Fano manifolds, wall structures and torus fibrations” (Shape2030) funded by the Norwegian Research Council. Building on prior work of successful ERC and EPSRC projects centered at the Imperial College London, Shape2030 is designed to turn Stavanger in Norway into a knowledge base for research on Fano manifolds.
Fano manifolds and more generally log Calabi-Yau manifolds lie at the heart of the enumerative mirror symmetry conjecture (EMS), the homological mirror symmetry conjecture (HMS) and the Strominger-Yau-Zaslow conjecture (SYZ). Using novel cutting edge techniques from logarithmic and tropical geometry, Shape2030 will make substantial progress on these conjectures and aim to solve EMS and SYZ. To enable the progress, new insights about mirror symmetry, mutations, degenerations, wall structures and torus fibrations will be used.
The project team consist of 16 diverse team members: 5 local in Norway and 11 at strategically chosen international centers. The project leader is Helge Ruddat. Thesis writing students will be equiped with unique skill sets in mathematical problem solving, advanced techniques in algebraic and symplectic geometry as well as artificial intelligence.
Deadline : 15th September 2025
