PhD Opportunities in Civil Engineering in Hungary

This PhD project is hosted by the Department of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) and is linked to the doctoral subject Landscape Architecture. The research focuses on governance and organizational adaptation in relation to the operation and maintenance of urban drainage infrastructure. The project addresses a major sustainability challenge: stormwater transports pollutants from urban areas into receiving waters, creating pre...

This PhD project is part of the ACCESS initiative, Augmenting the STEM Classroom by ESS Digital Twins , a collaboration between Technical University of Denmark (DTU) , University of Copenhagen , and the European Spallation Source (ESS) in Lund. The project focuses on how university students learn when they work with digital twins of ESS instruments, and how such virtual environments can prepare them for real neutron-based experiments. The research is centred on four ESS instruments and the learn...

This PhD fellowship at the Department of Plant and Environmental Sciences , University of Copenhagen, sits at the intersection of plant stress physiology , single-cell biology , and comparative crop genomics . The project asks how heat and drought reshape gene regulation in individual cell types rather than in whole organs, where opposing responses can be hidden by averaging. You will work on four major Nordic crops: rapeseed , potato , wheat , and barley . The experimental work is designed to r...

The PhD fellowship is based in the Mutwil group at the Department of Plant and Environmental Sciences (PLEN), University of Copenhagen , working at the interface of comparative and evolutionary plant biology and AI-driven discovery. The project focuses on computational plant biology and aims to turn the plant literature and multi-omics data into evidence-backed predictions of gene function and stress regulation, with particular attention to heat and drought resilience in Nordic crops. The studen...

The Robotics and Artificial Intelligence group (RAI) at Luleå University of Technology is recruiting a doctoral student to join a growing research environment focused on autonomous robotics. The team works on fundamental and principled research across robotics, with a particular emphasis on aerial, space, and bio-inspired robotics. The position is based in the Department of Systems and Space Engineering and is embedded in an active research setting that aims to bridge the gap between theory and ...

Electronics Integration and Reliability (EILB) at Aalto University School of Electrical Engineering is seeking a doctoral researcher to work on the next generation of high-density power electronics. The group develops innovative materials, device design, and bonding technologies for wide-bandgap and ultra-wide-bandgap semiconductor systems, with applications extending to RF devices and smart sensors. The project centers on miniaturised heterogeneous integration for power electronics, using novel...

This scholarship offers a fully funded PhD place through the NERC GW4+ Doctoral Training Partnership, a joint programme run by the Universities of Bristol, Exeter, Bath and Cardiff. It supports doctoral research in Earth, Environmental and Life Sciences over 3.5 years, with projects hosted at one of the four UK partner universities. The partnership brings together a large cohort of researchers across the natural sciences, with access to laboratory and fieldwork resources, conference support, and...

This PhD project at the University of Groningen focuses on atmospheric trace gas observations in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere. The work builds on the long-term IAGOS-CARIBIC passenger aircraft measurement project, which has collected scientific observations during regular passenger flights over more than a decade. You will analyse trace gas mixing ratio data to detect and characterise special events with unusual atmospheric compositions, particularly involving long-lived greenhou...

Project Tec4Safe at the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto (FEUP) is recruiting one entry-level PhD researcher to work on research activities in road safety, within a fixed-term employment contract linked to the project’s duration. The position is based at FEUP’s Department of Civil Engineering and Georesources in Porto, with work also taking place at other locations needed for the duties and training activities. The researcher will contribute to Tec4Safe – Tailored technology and...
