About this position

PhD Candidate in Biodiversity Value Assessment for Energy Transition at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), Norway.

This PhD opportunity is focused on biodiversity value assessment in the context of the energy transition. The project sits at the intersection of biodiversity, ecological valuation, and sustainable energy planning, making it a strong fit for candidates interested in conservation science, environmental assessment, and the trade-offs involved in shifting to low-carbon energy systems.

The posting indicates a PhD opening rather than a postdoctoral or master’s role. The available information highlights NTNU as the host institution and Norway as the location. The application deadline is 2026-11-13.

Although the text provided here does not include detailed supervision, funding notes, or eligibility specifics, the topic suggests a research profile spanning biodiversity, ecosystem value, and energy-system transformation. Candidates with backgrounds in biology or environmental science may find the topic especially relevant.

Interested applicants should use the Jobbnorge application link to review the full position page and complete the application process. Be sure to submit all required documents before the deadline.
