About this position

Department of Mathematical Sciences, Faculty of SCIENCE, University of Copenhagen, invites applications for PhD stipends in Mathematics.

The opening covers several research directions, including Algebraic and Arithmetic Geometry, Applied Algebra, Combinatorics, Geometric Group Theory, Geometry and Geometric Analysis, Number Theory, Representation Theory, Topology, Classical Analysis, Descriptive Set Theory, Functional Analysis, Harmonic Analysis, History of Mathematics, Mathematical Physics, Operator Algebras, Partial Differential Equations, Quantum Information, Quantum Computation, and Quantum Simulation.

Applicants should have a strong fit with mathematics or nearby fields and a curious mindset with good English skills. The post describes two routes: a regular 3-year PhD programme for candidates with a relevant master’s degree, and an integrated MSc+PhD programme (up to 5 years) for candidates with a relevant bachelor’s degree who are enrolled in or eligible for the faculty’s MSc programmes in Mathematics or Quantum Information Science.

Funding is provided as a PhD stipend/full-time employment under Danish academic agreements. For the integrated route, the grant is partly paid through SU portions plus salary for work before the MSc is completed, then transitions to salary for the final two years. The current PhD grant portion is stated as DKK 7,426 before tax (2026).

The position is based at the University of Copenhagen in Copenhagen, Denmark. The application deadline is 1 November 2026, 23:59 GMT+1. Apply online through the APPLY NOW portal and upload a motivation letter, CV, diplomas/transcripts, and reference letters if available.
