PhD Admission Opportunity at Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV), Spain
The UPV Doctoral School has opened applications for the
2026/2027 academic year
. This is a doctoral admission call, not a scholarship-only post, and international applicants are welcome.
Research areas / study keywords:
mechanical engineering, materials science, tribology, nanotechnology, industrial engineering, and related doctoral research fields.
Application windows:
most doctoral programmes run from
2026-06-15 to 2026-10-15

Eligibility highlights:
applicants need a bachelor's and master's degree or equivalent, must be eligible for doctoral studies in the country where the degree was awarded, and must have support from a UPV professor who agrees to supervise the thesis. The UPV guidance also requires standard documentation such as ID/passport, CV with supporting evidence, academic records, and degree documents. Non-Spanish or non-EHEA qualifications may require equivalency documentation and, in some cases, a fee for degree equivalence assessment.
Funding:
the UPV page references pre-doctoral grants and funding information, but this specific post does not promise a funded position. Applicants should check the doctoral school pages for grants and programme-specific support.
How to apply:
review the UPV doctoral programme page, confirm the programme and supervisor, prepare the required PDF documents, and submit the pre-enrollment application through the UPV platform before the deadline.
Institution:
