Why this matters
- Bringing together a large, international network of researchers and building a PhD course around it is quite unique. For PhD candidates it can be difficult to gain access to interdisciplinary conferences of this kind, whereas here they get access to researchers across many fields in one place, says associate professor Fredrik Andersen at the Department og Welfare, Management and Organisation.
-The importance of meeting and building relationships across national borders in the turbulent times we live in is also significant, says professor Anna Lydia Svalastog.
For PhD candidates – internal & external
- We’re very pleased that different academic environments at HiØ offer courses that can be included as elective parts of the PhD training. This course is a great example—highly relevant to understanding trans‑ and interdisciplinarity in today’s digital society,” says Special Adviser Geir Afdal.
