The Norwegian Research School on Digitalization, Culture and Society (DIGIT)
The idea of creating a Norwegian Research School on Digitalization, Culture and Society came up after the Covid-19-pandemic outbreak in 2020, witnessing the widespread digitalization measures that followed. The scientific communities in Norway conducting social and cultural studies of digital technologies are fragmented, and the founders of DIGIT wanted to overcome this fragmentation, by bringing together and facilitating dialogue between humanities and social sciences and non-academic partners.
DIGIT is hosted by the Centre of the study of digitalization of public services and citizenship (CEDIC) at Oslo Metropolitan University. The research school is funded by the Research Council of Norway.
The research school accepts up to thirty top qualified PhD candidates and postdoctoral fellows each year until 2028. The first class was enrolled autumn 2022.
