KUPP (karriereutviklingspilotprogram) aims to:
- raise awareness about an SFF’s role, responsibilities, attitudes, and targeted activities to support the career development of young researchers;
- clarify the activities, services, and cultural norms in SFFs that will best support the success of young researchers and actively encourage their career responsibility;
- identify improvements and changes that should be tried out and/or introduced.
As part of KUPP, one-day workshops were held at Lysebu on October 30 and November 27 2018, and at the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters on November 14 2019 and October 29 2024.

In early 2020, the University of Oslo approved the new Standards for UiO’s Career Support for Early Career Research, to which the 2018 KUPP report had provided important input.
