The position is based in the Fluid & Process research group at the Campus Esbjerg environment, where researchers work across process, chemical, energy, and electrical engineering. The project is centred on integrated Power-to-X plants and their behaviour under changing operating conditions. ...

CarbonLab at Aalborg University is seeking one or more PhD candidates to help advance Direct Air Capture (DAC) technologies. The project addresses the scientific and engineering challenges that remain before DAC can be deployed at very large scale, with a focus on developing energy-efficient, economically viable systems built on a deeper understanding of how materials, processes and system integration interact. The PhD work is linked to two research directions: developing process-aware methods f...

PhD opportunity in econometric theory and methodology at Aarhus Center for Econometrics (ACE) , hosted by the Department of Economics and Business Economics at Aarhus University. The project sits within ACE’s research agenda on methods for estimation and inference that remain reliable when conventional assumptions do not fit the data or statistical problem. The call invites an original PhD project in econometric theory and methodology, with possible directions including cluster dependence, high-...

DTU Compute is offering a PhD scholarship focused on developing machine-learning methods for faster analysis and optimization of cyber-physical systems. The project will connect learned prediction models with optimization methods to address analytical calculations and simulations that are too expensive to evaluate repeatedly within practical computing budgets. The PhD researcher will develop surrogate models for predicting outputs such as execution delays, energy use, and resource demands. Machi...

The Department of Plant and Environmental Science at the University of Copenhagen is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher for a 34-month project on crop root development and its effects on root-zone water and nitrogen dynamics. The work is centred on the newly established RootAccess facility, which is designed to study crop root growth down to 3 meters and to trace how roots influence water and nitrogen processes at the same depth. The project will examine how a range of common crops exploit the...

The Department of Mathematical Sciences at the University of Copenhagen is offering PhD stipends in Statistics and the mathematics of Insurance and Economics . The call sits within the sections of Insurance and Economics and Statistics and Probability Theory, and is based in a research-intensive department with active PhD, postdoc, and visitor programs in central Copenhagen. Students may develop projects in several directions, including optimal transport and adapted Wasserstein metrics , and cau...

This scholarship supports Danish citizens with close ties to Denmark who are pursuing a Master’s degree in the United States, usually at the Harvard Kennedy School and in some cases at another comparable Ivy League university. It is designed for study in public policy or public administration and is administered by the Danish-American Fulbright Commission. The award can support either a one-year or a full two-year master’s programme. The one-year option is intended for experienced professionals,...

Copenhagen Business School is recruiting a postdoc in work-life balance policy: citizens, policies and firms at the Department of International Economics, Government & Business .
