PhD Fellowship position in Art Therapy and Emotion Regulation
1 month ago
OsloMet's vision is to deliver knowledge to solve societal challenges. Norway's most urban and 3rd largest university.
The department of Art, Design and Drama at the Faculty of Technology, Art and Design, has a vacant position as a PhD fellow in Art Therapy and Emotion Regulation. This PhD project explores how art therapy facilitates emotion regulation and alleviates emotional pain through creative and relational processes. By integrating art-based and qualitative methods with biomarker analysis, the research aims to provide new insights into psychosocial health and resilience. The position is connected to the following research groups: Art-Practice-Research Creative Practice – (Trans)forming Space, Place, and the Environment Design for Health and Advanced Health Intelligence and Brain-inspired Technologies (ADEPT).
Area of researchEmotional pain is a core characteristic of many psychological disorders, including depression, personality disorders, and trauma. However, traditional treatments often fail to address it adequately. Art therapy, a body-mind approach, provides a unique means of transforming painful experiences into resilience and sustainable well-being through creativity and sensory engagement. By tapping into emotions, art fosters emotion regulation skills and can play a vital role in mental health interventions.
This project explores how art therapy transforms emotional pain into resilience by integrating aesthetic, emotional, and interpersonal processes. It employs an interdisciplinary mixed-methods approach to examine both the psychosocial and physiological effects of art therapy. The study contributes to the fields of art therapy, health sciences, and sustainability, offering insights that inform mental health practices and public health policies.
The position is advertised as a 3-year position with 100% research, or a 4-year position with 75% research and 25% other career-advancing work. The goal must be to complete the PhD program/degree within the decided time frame. The decision on a 3- or 4-year position will be discussed as part of the interviews in the hiring process.
Qualification requirements and conditions- Master's degree within art therapy, art education, fine arts, psychology, health sciences, or equivalent related disciplines. The degree must contain 120 credits (ECTS). All exams for the master's degree must be completed by 30 June 2025.
- An academic profile that suits the research group's and the department's needs.
- Good communication skills in English, oral and written.
The following grade requirements are a condition for employment in the position:
- Minimum average grade B on subjects included in the master's degree.
- Minimum grade B on the master's thesis.
Admission to the doctoral program Innovation for sustainability at the Faculty of Technology, Art and Design within three months of employment is a prerequisite for the position. If you already have a doctorate in a related field, you will not qualify for the position.
In assessing the applicants, emphasis will be placed on the department's overall needs and the applicant's potential for research within the field.
Preferred selection criteria- Profound knowledge and education in art therapy.
- Strong creativity, critical thinking skills, and the ability to work systematically and persistently.
- Ability to work ambitiously and in a goal-oriented manner, both independently and collaboratively.
