Graduate School of Technical Sciences PhD Fellowship 2026
About this scholarship
Fully funded PhD fellowships at Aarhus University’s Graduate School of Technical Sciences in Denmark across technical and science-related research areas.
The Graduate School of Technical Sciences PhD Fellowship is a doctoral funding opportunity offered by the Graduate School of Technical Sciences at Aarhus University in Denmark. These fellowships support research-based PhD training in technical and related scientific fields, with projects advertised by individual departments, programmes, and supervisors.
Based on recent postings, the fellowship is used for fully funded PhD positions at Aarhus University in areas such as biological and chemical engineering and plant computational biology. Projects may be hosted within programmes including Biological and Chemical Engineering and Quantitative Genetics and Genomics, and are tied to specific research groups and topics. Successful applicants join an active research environment and complete a PhD under academic supervision at Aarhus University.
Funding is described in postings as available for the PhD fellowship, and these roles are generally understood as funded doctoral positions. Exact benefits can vary by project, but applicants can normally expect employment-based PhD support in Denmark rather than a simple tuition discount.
The fellowship is intended for applicants who already hold a relevant master’s degree. Recent examples show that required backgrounds depend on the project and may include chemical engineering, chemistry, biotechnology, bioinformatics, computational biology, computer science, mathematics, physics, or related disciplines. Strong written and spoken English is required, while additional research, programming, laboratory, publication, or teaching experience may be advantageous depending on the topic.
Applications are typically submitted for a specific advertised PhD project at Aarhus University. Candidates should prepare academic transcripts, degree documentation, a CV, and research-relevant supporting materials requested in the vacancy notice, and then apply through the university’s recruitment system or the application route stated in the call.
