About this position
BI Norwegian Business School in Oslo, Norway is advertising a PhD Candidate in Administrative Sanctions within the Department of Law and Governance and the RODEAS project: Rule of Law, Due Process, and Effectivity in Administrative Sanctioning. The project is funded by the Research Council of Norway (2026–2030) and examines administrative sanctions from an interdisciplinary legal perspective.
The advertised PhD project should be anchored in WP1 and focus on the legal nature of administrative sanctioning at the intersection of criminal law punishment and purely restrictive measures. The broader project addresses the relationship between administrative sanctions and punishment, principles for imposing sanctions, the need for dedicated sanctioning procedures, proportionality, and the theoretical justification of administrative sanctions in light of current legislative and administrative practice.
This is a four-year PhD position with 25% teaching or other career-promoting duties. The candidate is expected to be based at BI’s Campus Oslo and to participate actively in the department’s research community and RODEAS activities. Salary is NOK 623,200, and BI offers a pension scheme and welfare benefits.
Eligibility highlights include a Norwegian five-year Master’s degree in Law or equivalent, excellent academic proficiency in English or Norwegian, and a project aligned with RODEAS objectives. The candidate must also qualify for PhD admission at either the University of Oslo or the University of Bergen, since BI is not accredited to award PhDs in law.
Application deadline: 2026-11-15. Apply online and upload an application letter, a 5–10 page project description, CV and publication list, diploma, and other relevant documents.
