Several new, large projects have increased the need for researchers in the north. Nordland Research Institute currently has several vacancies. Your dream job may be within reach if you are passionate about sea or welfare research. In the last two years, Nordland Research Institute has hired 20 new employees, and more will come.

The International Arctic Science Committee (IASC) and Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR) are pleased to confirm that planning for the 5th International Polar Year (IPY) in 2032-33 has started.

Celebrated every 10th November, World Science Day for Peace and Development highlights the need to engage the broader public in debates on emerging scientific issues. It also underlines the importance and relevance of science in our daily lives.
