1. Fully Funded PhD Position in pharmaco-epidemiology
Summary of PhD Program:
You will work actively on the preparation and defence of a PhD thesis in the field of pharmaco-epidemiology and the early life microbiome. The overall aim of the project is to assess how antibiotics and proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) affect the microbiome acquisition during early life (microbiome), how this affects the risk of common infections and immune-related outcomes such as asthma and allergies (translational) – and how large this impact could be on population level (drug utilization).
Application Deadline: September 16, 2024
2. Fully Funded PhD Position in applied sciences and heritage science
Summary of PhD Program:
The research group Antwerp Cultural Heritage Sciences (ARCHES) of the University of Antwerp (Faculty Design Sciences, Conservation-Restoration), in collaboration with the AXIS research group (University of Antwerp, Department of Physics), is looking for a full-time (100%) doctoral candidate in the interdisciplinary field of Applied Sciences and Heritage science, focussing on the material technical study and chemical characterization of impermeable coatings on historical horse-drawn vehicles.

3. Fully Funded PhD Position in architecture, digitalisation and real estate markets
Summary of PhD Program:
Do you want to be part of the circular revolution to rethink the way we value the built environment? In order to make our cities more circular, we need to fundamentally revisit the way that we define and quantify the value of our built environment. This fully-funded doctoral project is part of a Marie Sklodowska Curie Action Doctoral Network, QuiVal, a programme funded by the European Union with the aim to develop a fundamentally new approach to real estate valuation, allowing the sector to rapidly transition towards a more sustainable, low carbon and circular future.
Application Deadline: Sept. 12, 2024
4. Fully Funded PhD Position in product development
Summary of PhD Program:
You will work actively on the preparation and defence of a PhD thesis in the field of Product Development. You will employ Research through Design to investigate how embodied interaction propels inclusive design. The practical context is the conception of a new product dedicated to one specific function, for example home banking, Ambient Assistive Living (AAL) applications, etc. The product uses an interaction style that fits people who are unable or unwilling to use today’s smartphone and tablet solutions.
Application Deadline: 1 September 2024
5. Fully Funded PhD Position in dynamic economic impact assessment of seaweed biorefineries to support the protein shift
Summary of PhD Program:
You will work actively on the preparation and defence of a PhD thesis on the dynamic economic impact assessment of seaweed biorefineries. This PhD research is part of a larger FWO-SBO research project SUPROSEA (Sustainable Proteins from Seaweed) in which a solution is sought for the imminent shortage of protein by cultivating seaweed in Flanders. Seaweed is a promising alternative protein source and can contribute to global food sustainability.
Application Deadline: 11 September 2024

6. Fully Funded PhD Position in death studies
Summary of PhD Program:
You will work actively on the preparation and defence of a PhD thesis in the field of Death Studies. You will research the ethical aspects of different funeral methods, with a special focus on ecological concerns within sustainable and inclusive death care. You will collaborate with researchers from environmental studies, law, sociology and anthropology in an interdisciplinary SBO-FWO project called Death Care.
Application Deadline: September 5 2024
7. Fully Funded PhD Position in translation studies and media accessibility
Summary of PhD Program:
You will work actively on the preparation and defence of a PhD thesis in the fields of Translation Studies and Media Accessibility working on a project entitled “TAP: Tapping the audio description process”.
Application Deadline: 16 September 2024
8. Fully Funded PhD Position in environmental biotechnology, wastewater engineering and resource recovery
Summary of PhD Program:
You will work actively on the preparation and defence of a PhD thesis in the field of wastewater engineering. In view of the much needed transition of conventional wastewater treatment systems to advanced water resource recovery facilities, this project develops the innovative concept of High-Rate Granular Sludge or HiGS. HiGS aims at various complementary resource recovery routes: 1) energy recovery via anaerobic digestion of the sludge operated at low sludge retention times, 2) nutrient recovery via the enhanced biological phosphorus removal process which is key to granulation, and 3) recovery of valuable gel-forming biopolymers that define the structure of the aerobic granules.
Application Deadline: September 5th 2024
9. Fully Funded PhD Position in water electrolysis
Summary of PhD Program:
As researcher you will start within the research group ELCAT, currently employing around 30 people. The research of ELCAT revolves around electrochemistry. The main research activities are related to the development of state-of-the-art electrochemical reactors and catalyst, with as most important purpose the electrification of the industry and thus the replacement of traditional chemical processes with green and sustainable alternatives.
Application Deadline: September 17th 2024
