Extended affiliation for pensioner and emeritus

Pensioners and emeriti who wish to make unpaid contributions relevant to UiO’s activities, first and foremost related to research, may be offered extended affiliation with UiO without being employed.

In addition, UiO has a broad range of welfare offers for pensioners.


Possible activities

Activities a pensioner can be involved in upon own initiative and without pay may include:

  • continuing and finalizing research projects
  • dissemination and popularization
  • mentor activities, support for new and/or younger employees
  • project participation
  • participation in/development of networks
  • other relevant work

Access to UiO's infrastructure

What the offer to the pensioner is to encompass is subject to individual consideration and decided by the unit manager.

Examples may include access to:

  • a virtual work space, with access to the Internet, databases, analysis tools

  • libraries, reading rooms, physical work station
  • e-mail address, web presentation of own projects, registration of publications in databases
