The level structure of 12N has been investigated from 2.2 to 11.0 MeV in excitation energy using a 11C+p resonance interaction with thick targets and inverse kinematics. Excitation functions were fitted using an R-matrix approach. Sixteen levels in 12N were included in the analysis, several of them are new. Spin-parity assignments, excitation energies and widths are proposed for these levels.
