1. Fully Funded PhD Position in International and European Law
Summary of PhD Program:
Recent years have seen significant changes in the types of cases being brought before international judicial bodies: increasingly, states are instituting proceedings on the basis of common or community interests, such as the regulation of the global environment, the protection of human rights, or the prevention of unspeakable atrocities like genocide. Concerns have been raised, however, about the appropriateness and suitability of traditional bilateral and adversarial procedures for dealing with such issues, particularly where they transcend the rights and interests of individual states parties to the case.
Application Deadline: 19 August 2024
2. Fully Funded PhD Position in Philosophy of Science: Causal Inquiry in the Social Sciences
Summary of PhD Program:
In this PhD project, you will critically study causal mechanisms in the social sciences. The project is suitable for a candidate with a strong background in philosophy of science and a proven interest or experience in social scientific research (such as political science, international relations studies, sociology, or educational research). You will be able to shape the project in a way that matches your interests and background.
Application Deadline: 18 August 2024

3. Fully Funded PhD Position in Declarative Programming and the Internet of Things
Summary of PhD Program:
You will contribute to research on the various aspects of orchestrating IoT systems. Topics we study are embedded domain-specific languages, declarative programming styles such as functional programming and task-oriented programming, tierless programming, green computing, and system orchestration. Furthermore, we perform quantitative and qualitative empirical research on these techniques to answer questions regarding the usability, maintainability and evolve-ability of these novel methods.
Application Deadline: 31 August 2024
4. Fully Funded PhD Position in Biogeochemistry
Summary of PhD Program:
The project focuses on samples that were collected around East Antarctica and Svalbard this year. These two locations contrast in terms of the impact of climate change. Where the impact of human-induced climate change around East Antarctica is limited, Svalbard is already heavily impacted. Your work will be to determine current iron and manganese dynamics at these two locations by conducting laboratory work and geochemical modelling. Additional fieldwork is expected.
Application Deadline: 01 September 2024
5. Fully Funded PhD Position in The Conceptual History of Ethics in Modern Arabic
Summary of PhD Program:
The primary resources envisioned for this study are the Arabic journals and newspapers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries (circa 1870-1950) which were a hotbed of intellectual and linguistic innovation. The main theoretical and methodological lens of the project is that of conceptual history. The concept of ethics is very broad, however, and within these bounds you are free to explore different research questions – e.g. focusing on how the concept of ethics was articulated in different religious and political discourses, how ethical terminology was translated, or how concepts of ethics were disseminated.
Application Deadline: 25 August 2024
6. 06 Fully Funded PhD Position in Environmental Science, Hydrology, Socioeconomics, Toxicology or Ecology of Pollutants
Summary of PhD Program:
The aim of ’The Power of Size’ is to obtain relationships for the emission, fate and effects of pollutants as a function of size. We intend to derive overarching scaling principles applicable to multiple disciplines, including hydrology, socioeconomics, toxicology and ecology. To this end, you will collect data from databases, reviews, articles, and reports. Subsequently, you will derive and compare statistical and mechanistic relationships. As a lead author, you will publish the outcome in scientific journals and present the main findings at conferences in international settings.
