Centres of Excellence (SFF)

The Faculty of Humanities is host to one Centre of Excellence in Research (SFF). The Centre of Excellence status is subject to significant competition, and it is granted for a period of ten years.

The Research Council of Norway has initiated a Centres of Excellence scheme with the intention of bringing more Norwegian researchers and research groups up to a high international standard. The centres are affiliated with Norway's top universities and premier independent research institutes.
