TU/e to hire nine PhD students in joint supervision with other EuroTech Universities

4 August 2023 | The nine TU/e departments will welcome again PhD students that are interested in not only benefitting from the excellent research and education environment in Eindhoven but also in spending at least six months of their PhD at another EuroTech University. The first respective vacancies have been published. The PIs in Eindhoven and at the partner universities are looking forward to applications of excellent candidates from around the world.

The EuroTech PhD programme at TU/e, launched in 2022, funds one PhD position per TU/e department per year. In total, there will be four funding rounds. The proposals of the following PIs were successful in this year’s funding round.
