Centre for Advanced Study (CAS) at The Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters

The Centre for Advanced Study (CAS) supports excellent, fundamental and curiosity-driven research. CAS’ primary objective is to provide its fellows with uninterrupted time to work on problems that do not have to yield short-term returns. Each year, CAS hosts three research groups working on projects within and across the fields of the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences.
All faculty members who hold permanent research positions at CAS’ partner institutions in Norway are eligible to submit a project proposal and to assemble their international dream team of prominent researchers. The research groups stay at CAS, situated at the stately premises of The Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters in Oslo, for one academic year.
