Applications are invited for 15 full-time PhD student positions (called Early Stage Researchers or ESR) for joint and double PhD degrees for\u00a036 months<\/strong>. The positions are offered within the\u00a0A-WEAR European Joint Doctorate<\/strong>action of the highly appreciated EU-funded Marie Sk\u0142odowska Curie grants. We offer high-class training and the possibility of PhD graduation with double or joint PhD certificate. The positions are fully funded for a 36-month period. You can choose your position in one of five top-level universities in Czech Republic, Finland, Italy, Romania, or Spain and complement your experience within periods of up to 15 months of cross-country and industrial secondments by working with the highly committed industrial partners of the action in the above-mentioned countries. You are encouraged to apply for up to four positions within A-WEAR network if you believe your profile is suitable for multiple topics. A separate application is needed for each position in case you apply for multiple positions.<\/p>\n

A-WEAR<\/strong>\u00a0is an international, multidisciplinary and multi-sectorial training network and joint doctorate programme on wearable computing. A-WEAR is funded by the European Union’s Horizon2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Sk\u0142odowska Curie grant agreement No. 813278.<\/p>\n

The 15 ESR projects are listed below. Please read their description carefully before applying and choose only those that best suit to your profile.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>We recommend you to choose the position(s) you apply for based on your technical profile and desired technical expertise, rather than based on the hosting location, as all positions involve high-level cross-country research mobility, as well as industrial mobility.<\/p>\n
