Description
The Norwegian government has launched the International Partnerships for Excellence Education, Research and Innovation (INTPART) programme to foster world-class research and education through long-term international collaborations. Funded by the Norwegian Ministry of Education and Research and administered by the Research Council of Norway and the Norwegian Directorate for Higher Education and Skills (HK-dir), this initiative presents a valuable opportunity for institutions to either deepen existing partnerships with Norwegian entities or diversify their partnership portfolio. Institutions interested in participating must reach out to their Norwegian partners or prospective partners to express interest in the program.
The INTPART call for proposals has a deadline of April 30, 2025, at 13:00 CEST, with a funding scale of up to NOK 5,000,000 (approximately $675,000 CAD) per project. The total available funding for this call is NOK 100,000,000. Projects may last between 48 and 60 months, starting between January 1 and March 1, 2026, and concluding by February 28, 2030. Norwegian universities and research organizations can apply as the project owner, either to establish new international partnerships or strengthen existing ones. Eligible activities for funding include mobility stays (students, staff, and professors), workshops, curriculum development, research cooperation, joint teaching, and partnerships with the business and public sectors.
