QUROPE Quantum Information Processing and Communication in Europe

The Department of Applied Physics at the University of Geneva in Switzerland is one of the premier research institutions in the field of Quantum Information Science and Technology. The Quantum Technologies group, led by Prof. Hugo Zbinden and Dr Rob Thew, is inviting motivated people to apply for an open PhD as part of a new multidisciplinary project on Quantum Vision.

We are looking for a PhD student to work on a theory project in quantum information science, in particular the implementation and modelling of QIP protocols in solid-state systems.

PhD Stipends, Fall 2017

A number of attractive PhD stipends in Mathematics are available at the University of Copenhagen, The Villum Centre of Excellence for the Mathematics of Quantum Theory. The starting date for the stipends is in the fall of 2017. Candidates are expected to have obtained a Master's degree, or equivalence thereof, before starting.

Unique PhD Experience

Within the framework of the EU H2020 Marie Curie European Training Network (ETN) “Optomechanical Technologies OMT” (www.omt-etn.net), there are 15 open positions for PhD students in the field of Cavity Optomechanics.  We strongly encourage female researchers to apply.

Collective effects and optomechanics in ultra-cold matter

is inviting applications of highly qualified and ambitious early state researchers for three year research or research & development projects. In total 15 positions are available at 12 partners. Candidates hosted at university nodes are expected to participate in the PhD programme of their host institution.

A fully funded PhD/Doctoral Studentship is available at the Information Security Group of Royal Holloway (University of London) in the area of post-quantum cryptography.

A PhD studentship, supported by EPSRC funding through Heriot-Watt University, is available to work on quantum communications as part of The Quantum Communications Hub, based at Heriot-Watt’s campus in Edinburgh.

PhD Positions in Quantum Communication

The Group of Applied Physics at the University of Geneva in Switzerland is one of the premier research institutions in the field of Quantum Information Science and Technology. The Quantum Repeater and Memory group led by Dr. Mikael Afzelius and Prof. Nicolas Gisin is inviting motivated people to apply for several open experimental PhD positions.

We announce the opening of a PhD position in the Donostia International Physics Center (DIPC),  Donostia-San Sebastian, Spain. The project addresses theoretical questions at the joint frontier fields of Spin-Orbit Photonics and Quantum Optics, in particular concerning topological and quantum properties of light- and spin-transport in photonic nanostructures. We offer a three-year fully funded contract. Review of the applications will begin after February 19th, 2017 and will continue until the position is filled. The start date would be as early as possible.
