About this position

The University of Luxembourg, a modern and international research university, is offering a PhD position in Theoretical Quantum Physics within the Quantum Dynamics of Control (QDC) group led by Professor Aurelia Chenu. The successful candidate will join a dynamic research team focused on quantum dynamics and control, and will have the opportunity to drive their own research project.

The position is embedded within the Department of Physics and Material Science (DPhyMS), which is launching a doctoral training unit in quantum physics, providing targeted graduate courses and fostering collaboration with other research groups. The university offers a vibrant, multilingual, and interdisciplinary environment, with staff from over 90 countries and strong ties to both academic and non-academic partners in Luxembourg and across Europe. The position is based at Campus Limpertsberg and comes with a fixed-term contract of 36 months, full-time (40 hours per week), and a competitive yearly gross salary of EUR 40952.

Applicants should have excellent analytical and numerical skills, solid knowledge of quantum mechanics, strong motivation, creativity, and a willingness to lead a project. The application requires a motivation letter (with 'PhD-ATTRACT' in the subject), a CV including year of birth, and contact details for three referees. The university promotes an inclusive culture and encourages applications from individuals of all backgrounds.
