  • You will present and evaluate your research findings at quarterly project workshops together with industry partners from the CC CDQ community, ensuring a direct practical impact in the industry
  • You will publish your insights in top-tier academic journals, present them at renowned national and international conferences, and support the acquisition of third-party funded projects

  • You are aiming for a doctorate.

What we offer:

  • Work on exciting future-oriented research topics in an inspiring work environment as part of the university community
