PhD in Compilation Principles for Reversible Languages (MSCA E-CoRe, DC7) - University of Copenhagen, Denmark

University of Copenhagen · Denmark

The University of Copenhagen offers a Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions doctoral candidate position (DC7) in the E-CoRe doctoral network, working on compilation principles for reversible languages. The project studies how high-level reversible programs can be compiled into efficient low-level code while preserving invertibility guarantees, connecting programming-language theory with compiler engineering.

PhD Position in Entrepreneurship, AI, and Labor Market Disruption (DTU Entrepreneurship) - Technical University of Denmark (DTU), Denmark

Technical University of Denmark (DTU) · Denmark

The Technical University of Denmark (DTU) advertises a three-year funded PhD position in entrepreneurship, artificial intelligence, and labour-market disruption at DTU Entrepreneurship. The research examines how AI technologies reshape entrepreneurial activity and labour markets: which tasks and business models are disrupted, how new venture creation responds, and what the implications are for innovation policy and workforce transition.

PhD in Orbitronics and Twistronics 2027 — Aarhus University, Denmark

Aarhus University · Denmark

Fully funded PhD at Aarhus University investigating orbitronics and twistronics in 2D quantum materials using microscopic and ultrafast ARPES.

PhD in Physical AI for Robotics 2027 — Aarhus University, Denmark

Aarhus University · Denmark

Fully funded three-year PhD at Aarhus University in Physical AI, developing adaptive foundation models for robotics with multimodal perception and reasoning.

PhD Positions in Mathematics and Stochastics 2027 - Aarhus University - Aarhus University, Denmark

Aarhus University · Denmark

The Department of Mathematics at Aarhus University invites applications for PhD positions in mathematics, statistics and stochastics within its graduate programme. The call covers projects across the department's research groups, including analysis, geometry, probability, statistics and applied mathematics, with successful candidates joining active research environments at the Aarhus campus.

PhD in Reversible Programming Languages (MSCA E-CoRe Doctoral Network, DC1) - University of Copenhagen, Denmark

University of Copenhagen · Denmark

The University of Copenhagen offers a Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) doctoral candidate position in the E-CoRe doctoral network, working on reversible programming languages as doctoral candidate DC1. Reversible computing studies programming models and languages in which computation can run backwards as well as forwards, with applications from energy-efficient computing to quantum programming and incremental computation.

PhD: Tracking Microbes Across Borders using Genomics (Biomass-to-Biogas) - Aarhus University, Denmark

Aarhus University · Denmark

Aarhus University invites applications for a PhD position on tracking microbes across borders using genomics to uncover biomass-to-biogas transmission pathways. The project applies genomic and bioinformatic methods to understand how microbial communities move through biomass supply chains and biogas plants, connecting findings to process performance in the bioenergy sector.

SUFONAMA – Erasmus Mundus Master in Sustainable Forest and Nature Management

SUFONAMA Consortium · Denmark

SUFONAMA qualifies graduates for integrated management of forests and natural areas in a landscape context, coordinated from Copenhagen with European forestry partners. The current cycle uses 15 January (non-EU/EEA/Switzerland) and 1 March (EU/EEA/Switzerland) deadlines, a pattern the 2027 round is expected to repeat.

University of Southern Denmark (SDU) – Scholarships for Non-EU/EEA Students

University of Southern Denmark (SDU) · Denmark

SDU awards scholarships to talented non-EU/EEA master's applicants — tuition waivers, sometimes with a monthly living grant — allocated automatically with the admission application.
