PhD Positions in Media Studies in Denmark

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 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 PhD stipend is hosted by the Department of Computer Science at Aalborg University and is embedded in the Distributed Sustainable Software and Systems (DSSS) research group within the Distributed, Embedded and Intelligent Systems (DEIS) section. The project addresses a timely question in AI systems: how much energy agentic AI actually consumes, when that cost is justified, and when a cheaper alternative would be better. The PhD is part of the broader collaboration Energy, Sovereignty and the...

The Human-Centred Computing (HCC) section in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Copenhagen is offering a PhD fellowship in Human-Computer Interaction . The project examines how digital technologies mediate people’s experiences of their bodies, with a specific focus on self-tracking technologies and chronic illness . The successful PhD researcher will investigate how people with chronic conditions use self-tracking tools, how these technologies shape interactions with informa...

Aalborg University is offering a three-year PhD position in resilient LEO satellite communications and positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) within the Wireless Communications PhD programme. The project is part of the Satcom4Defence research and innovation initiative, which develops resilient low-Earth-orbit satellite communication systems for defence-related and other critical societal applications. The PhD researcher will investigate how to improve the robustness and reliability of LEO sate...

DTU Health Tech at the Technical University of Denmark is advertising research opportunities connected with human health and society. The PhD project focuses on 3D cochlear histopathology in ageing and systemic disease , addressing structural and disease-related changes in the cochlea through three-dimensional histopathological research. This opportunity is associated with the department’s hearing-systems research environment. A separate postdoctoral opening concerns technology-supported home-ba...

Aalborg University invites applications for a three-year PhD project on the energy efficiency and responsible use of agentic artificial intelligence. The position is hosted by the Department of Computer Science in the Distributed Sustainable Software and Systems (DSSS) research group, part of the Distributed, Embedded and Intelligent Systems (DEIS) section. The project investigates when the use of AI is worth its energy cost. Agentic AI systems may plan, call tools, retry operations, and check t...

This PhD project at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) Construct focuses on predictive Human Digital Twins for human-centred systems engineering. The research combines biomechanics, artificial intelligence and systems engineering to create personalised computational models of how individuals move and interact with technical systems. The project will develop methods that transform generic musculoskeletal models into personalised Human Digital Twins using sparse multimodal wearable-sensor d...
