PhD Opportunities in Economics in Sweden

Linköping University is offering a PhD position in philosophy with a focus on applied ethics. The doctoral project will examine ethical questions surrounding age as a basis for priority setting in health care, particularly in response to the challenges of an ageing population. The project must have a clear ethical focus, while allowing for the use of empirical approaches. The PhD student will be based across the Division of Philosophy and Applied Ethics in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences and th...

Lund University is recruiting a doctoral student in observational astronomy to investigate the origins and evolution of the Milky Way through Galactic archaeology . The project will use spectroscopic observations from 4MOST , a major survey in which Lund researchers have held leading roles in survey direction and data-analysis working groups. The PhD student will analyse 4MOST data released continuously over the next five years to study how stellar populations in the Milky Way formed and evolved...

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...

The Department of Economics at the University of Gothenburg is recruiting new PhD students to join its doctoral research environment in Sweden. Successful candidates will have the opportunity to develop their own research in economics while working alongside internationally engaged researchers. The department offers an active academic setting for doctoral studies, with opportunities to participate in a broad research community and advance independent economic research. The opening is intended fo...

This PhD project at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences is hosted by the Department of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management and sits within the third-cycle subject area of Landscape architecture . The doctoral research examines governance and organisational alignment for the operation and maintenance of urban drainage infrastructures, with a specific focus on how long-term maintenance schemes can be made more coherent, feasible, and environmentally responsible. The project...

The PhD project is based at the Department of Biosystems and Technology at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences and is part of the Biogas Solutions Research Center . The research focuses on how digestate residues from biogas production can be used safely and effectively in sustainable horticultural production. The project examines digestate as a circular resource that can return nutrients and organic material to cultivation. A central theme is the use of the fiber fraction as a compon...

This PhD project at the Department of Biosystems and Technology , Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, focuses on the valorization and risk assessment of anaerobic digestates for sustainable horticultural production. The research addresses how digestate from biogas production can be transformed into safe, useful inputs for horticulture, with particular attention to the liquid fraction for nutrient solutions and the fibre fraction as a growing-media component and potential partial replace...

This PhD position is based at the Department of Information Technology, Uppsala University , where the research environment is described as international and strongly connected to both research and education. The department is large and interdisciplinary, with a substantial community of teachers and PhD students, providing a setting in which the doctoral candidate will work alongside experienced colleagues in computational science. The project is centered on the development of computational and ...

This PhD project at Skogforsk focuses on the genetics and reproductive development of silver birch , with the aim of improving flowering and seed production for birch breeding. The student will investigate how environmental conditions and cultivation treatments influence flowering in young plants and older breeding material, with particular attention to light conditions, plant development and genetic differences in flowering responses. The work connects fundamental questions about reproductive b...
