WHAT IS RESEARCH LEAVE?

Research leave is intended to be a positive means of providing academic employees with a real opportunity to carry out continuous research work, whether it is in the form of in-depth work on their own research, the development of new projects or establishing research collaborations with other research environments, at a national and international level. 

Research leave is intended to stimulate and strengthen the researcher's academic community and to serve as an instrument in the recruitment work at NHH.
