PhD Opportunities in Mathematics

This PhD project is based at the Department of Biosystems and Technology at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences and is connected to the national Biogas Solutions Research Center (BSRC). The work sits at the interface of agricultural science, biomass supply, and biogas-oriented bioeconomy systems. The project will investigate how agricultural crop biomass can be used as a substrate for biogas while supporting the development of sustainable cropping systems. Using a field experiment pl...

This PhD project is part of TWIG, a five-year ERC Starting Grant focused on tropical forest biomass flows that are usually missed by conventional inventories. The work combines repeated terrestrial laser scanning with long-term forest monitoring to directly quantify damage, recovery, and biomass redistribution in mature tropical forests. The doctoral researcher will study the environmental and biological drivers of tree-level biomass changes and the ecological consequences of small-scale disturb...

University West is recruiting a doctoral student for a Kamprad-funded project in the research group NormAIL at the Department of Health Sciences. The project sits at the intersection of work-integrated learning (AIL) , caring science and virtual reality (VR) . It focuses on how digital learning environments can support competence development among staff working in municipal elderly care, especially in relation to palliative care for people with dementia. A central part of the research is the use...

Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) is offering a part-time graduate internship in sociocognitive modeling focused on the characterization and analysis of information operations and influence. The project sits within the 711th Human Performance Wing and brings interns into a research environment that combines computational modeling, theory-driven social science, and practical questions about how information spreads and affects behavior. The work centers on understanding how information propagat...

Research opportunity in quantum control and quantum algorithms at the Department of Electronic Systems, Aalborg University. The project sits within the Learning and Decisions Lab and is led by Professor Rafal Wisniewski, in an international environment with weekly meetings, close day-to-day supervision, and collaboration with senior researchers, PhD students, postdoctoral fellows, and international partners. The PhD is part of the QUANTA project, which studies how to view quantum programs as ope...

This fellowship is based within the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta and is hosted by the Division of Diabetes Translation , specifically the Surveillance, Epidemiology, Economics and Statistics Branch . The project offers training in the analysis of large population-based and healthcare databases to support CDC’s work on diabetes burden, prevention, treatment, and outcomes. The fellow will participate in epidemiologic and statistical research on diabetes prevalence, inciden...

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-...

The Quantum Error Correction team at the Novo Nordisk Foundation Quantum Computing Programme (NQCP) is offering up to three PhD fellowships at the University of Copenhagen’s Niels Bohr Institute in Copenhagen, Denmark. The programme is building a large, international, mission-driven research environment focused on advancing the full stack of quantum computing, from quantum processor development and the quantum-classical interface to quantum algorithms and applications. The advertised PhD project...

Luleå University of Technology is seeking a PhD student in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence within the RAI subject at the Department of Computer Science and Electrical and Space Engineering. The position sits in a strong international research environment with access to advanced laboratory equipment and active participation in national, European, and worldwide R&D projects. The RAI group works on fundamental and applied robotics with a particular emphasis on aerial, space, and bioinspired ro...
