Norwegian Partner Institutions
The Centre has 19 Norwegian universities, university colleges, and research institutes as partners.
The partnership agreements, which last for five years and may be renewed, are structured to benefit CAS, the partner institutions, and the researchers themselves:
- Our agreements with our partner institutions ensures that PIs and group members employed in tenured academic positions will be granted paid leave during their stay at CAS but this only applies if their teaching and tutoring obligations can be met while they are away.
- The partner institutions will earn the publication points that result from CAS projects, and CAS will not claim ownership of any results or findings.
- Former CAS Research Grant recipients can apply for the CAS Alumni Fellowship, which provides seed funding for developing results from the CAS project further at the home institution.

How to become a partner
The Centre accepts applications from Norwegian institutions and elects up to two new partners per year. Applications are reviewed annually at the board meeting in February.
While there is no direct cost associated with the partnership, partner institutions contribute to the collaboration by providing scholars from their institutions with fully paid sabbatical leave during their stay at CAS.
