This PhD project at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) explores dynamic space–time interfaces for high-speed THz beam control . The work sits at the intersection of photonics, electromagnetics, structured waves, nanofabrication, and experimental terahertz systems, with a strong focus on the emerging sub-THz regime (approximately 0.3–1 THz). You will investigate what becomes possible when a THz interface changes while the wave is interacting with it. The project aims to develop dynamically...

Questions
Do I need to contact a supervisor before applying for a PhD position?
In many European and Asian universities yes; in some US programs applications are centralized but supervisor contact still helps.
Is GRE required for master’s or PhD applications abroad?
It depends on the country and university — many programs have made GRE optional, especially outside the US.
Do funded PhD positions usually cover tuition and living expenses?
Yes. Most funded PhD roles include tuition coverage plus a monthly stipend, but details vary by country and lab.
Are publications required to apply for PhD or postdoc positions?
Not always required for PhD, but strongly recommended. For postdoc roles, publications are usually expected.
Will I need to pay a tuition deposit for master’s admission?
In many countries yes — especially for taught master’s programs — but funded PhD positions typically do not require deposits.
