PhD and Postdoc Positions in Media Studies in Denmark

ARoS Aarhus Art Museum is seeking a postdoctoral researcher for Olafur Eliasson × ARoS – Shared Futures , a long-term collaboration that centres on a major solo exhibition with Olafur Eliasson. The post is embedded in the museum’s curatorial and research environment and is closely tied to the upcoming exhibition project, including its public programme and related interpretive work. The research focus is Olafur Eliasson’s practice and immersive installation art more broadly. The role invites a pr...

This PhD project is part of Satcom4Defence at Aalborg University and focuses on resilient LEO satellite communication and 5G non-terrestrial networks (NTN) for defence-related and other mission-critical applications. The project addresses the technical challenges created by fast-moving satellites, dynamic coverage conditions, and vulnerabilities to interference, jamming, and electronic warfare. The doctoral researcher will work on methods to improve robustness and reliability across multiple lay...

The PhD fellowship is hosted by the Human Centered Computing section in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Copenhagen, within the Faculty of Science. The project sits inside REGULAIRE, a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Doctoral Network focused on how regulation can adapt when technologies, risks, and expectations change quickly. The research topic centers on the street-level bureaucracy of regulatory implementation for AI. The doctoral student will carry out in-depth qualitat...

The Institute of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering at the University of Southern Denmark invites applications for a one-year postdoctoral position in Intelligent Computing Architectures , centered on hardware-aware quantum machine learning . The project asks how hybrid quantum-classical learning systems behave under realistic hardware constraints, including noise, limited quantum resources, device connectivity, finite sampling, and classical computational overhead. The postdoc will work on t...

The section of Digital and High-Frequency Electronics at the Institute of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, University of Southern Denmark, is recruiting for one or more research and teaching appointments in communications, radar systems, signal processing, and antenna design. The position is embedded in a growing research environment that links digital and high-frequency electronics with applications in intelligent devices, autonomous systems, robotics, drones, defence technology, and the ...

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,...

The Section on Human-Centred Computing at the University of Copenhagen is inviting applicants for one or two PhD fellowships in Human-Computer Interaction as part of the Villum Investigator project TRACTION: Theoretical Research in Human-Computer Interaction . The project is awarded to Professor Kasper Hornbæk , and the fellowships sit within a research effort focused on theory-driven work on interactive systems. The project asks how theory can be used to better understand, evaluate, and design ...

This postdoctoral project at Aarhus University focuses on adaptive and distributed foundation model inference across the computing continuum . The successful candidate will join the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering and contribute to research aimed at making large foundation models more scalable, low-latency, and resource-aware by leveraging computation across edge and cloud environments. The work centers on distributed and collaborative inference strategies, including mixture-of...

The Danish Institute for Advanced Study (DIAS) at the University of Southern Denmark invites applications for one or more full-time postdoctoral positions within the Hybrid War and Democracy initiative in Odense. The initiative examines how international conflicts are increasingly waged through domestic and foreign influence campaigns supported by digital technologies and artificial intelligence. The research addresses the consequences of these developments for democracies, threat perceptions, i...
