Position codes and pay grade
The set-up below is a technical solution for placement in UiO's salary scale and is not intended to be in direct accordance with the external position/competence. The objective is to determine payment according to the appropriate salary scale. An individual assessment of the salary level is made for each lecturer/supervisor within each position code.
| Position | Position Code (SKO) | Salary Frame | Salary Grade |
|---|---|---|---|
| Colloquium supervisor without a master's degree | 0389 Academic Consultant | 35-66 | |
| External lecturer without a doctor's degree | 1009 University Lecturer | 25 | 47-71 |
| External lecturer with a doctor's degree | 1198 Senior Lecturer | 24 | 57-77 |
| External lecturer with professor competence, referee etc. | 1532 Professor | 69-101 |
Weighting
Recommended weighting for different kinds of teaching:
| Category 1 | Original lecture | 5 hours per lecture hour |
|---|---|---|
| Category 2 | Lecture/seminar | 4 hours per lecture hour |
| Category 3 | Chairing a seminar | 3 hours per lecture hour |
| Category 4 | Chairing a group | 2 hours per lecture hour |
| Category 5 | Chairing a colloquium | 1.5 hours per lecture hour |
The number of hours for each category is the total amount allocated for preparation, performance and follow-up work.
Case handling
Enter the salary grade and number of hours worked on the pay voucher. This ensures that the information is correctly registered in the Norwegian Public Pension Fund so that membership can be established when the criteria have been satisfied (i.e. having worked for the state in at least a 20 % position per calendar month).
Pay practise at units
Certain units have established a more specific pay practice for external teachers and supervisors. For details, see this page in Norwegian.
