1. Fully Funded PhD Position in Large Language Model inferencing
Summary of PhD Program:
The advertised doctoral student positions are within an ambitious, 5-year Wallenberg Scholar project titled “Scalable and adaptive inferencing for democratizing AI. In this 18 Million SEK project, we want to dramatically reduce the cost and power for serving large language models such as ChatGPT. Overall work will entail pruning and fine-tuning of large language models, as well as design, implementation, and evaluation of distributed systems and networks for machine learning inference.
Application Deadline: 05.Aug.2024
2. Fully Funded PhD Position in Acetivibrio thermocellus for sustainable production
Summary of PhD Program:
The overall purpose of this project is to develop Acetivibrio thermocellus as a next-generation robust microbial cell factory that can convert (ligno-)cellulose to sustainable fuels and chemicals with minimum pretreatment. The use of lignocellulose, instead of refined sugars, is preferred to expand (future) production volumes, improve cost-competitiveness and avoid competition with food.

3. Fully Funded PhD Position in condensed matter theory
Summary of PhD Program:
The project will mainly focus on quantum many-body physics in the field condensed matter physics. It will involve theoretical investigation of quantum systems both in and out of equilibrium using mainly analytical methods. The group’s current main research interests include quantum chaos, quantum thermalization, disordered systems, nonequilibrium dynamics, and superconductivity.

4. Fully Funded PhD Position in design of mining tool material using ICME
Summary of PhD Program:
Cemented carbides are materials with tungsten carbide grains and a cobalt binder phase. They have excellent materials properties, but a high dependence on the critical raw material cobalt. This project will investigate replacing cobalt with an iron based binder, and in doing so utilising the martensitic phase transformation to achieve a material with excellent mechanical properties for rock drilling applications. This will be done through a combination of thermodynamic and kinetic modelling through ICME (Integrated and Computational Materials Engineering)
Application Deadline: 08.Aug.2024
5. Fully Funded PhD Position in machine learning and autonomous decision-making
Summary of PhD Program:
This research project aims to develop novel theory and methodology for machine learning and autonomous decision-making. We will explore how machine learning algorithms and computing systems can be enhanced and re-imagined for unprecedented accuracy, efficiency, and scalability. The project combines fundamental theory development with practical software design.

6. Fully Funded PhD Position in Resilient Public Transport
Summary of PhD Program:
We are now looking for a PhD student who, in collaboration with the Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI), wants to explore the role and character of a socio-ecologically resilient public transport system in a longer-term perspective. We focus on the effects of transformative trends (pandemic, working from home, etc.), and how the mobility needs of all users are met in a way that is efficient, equitable and resilient to disruption. Sub-studies may include mapping of development trends, simulations of future systems, and resilience solutions supported by simulated case studies.
Application Deadline: 09.Aug.2024
7. Fully Funded PhD Position in Underwater Robotics and Machine Learning
Summary of PhD Program:
The project involves the use of multiple autonomous underwater vehicles to inspect and monitor an area quickly. The use of machine learning for advance data fusion will be the focus of the research. It will also involve in water testing and development of a system in simulation and partially in hardware. The resources available in SMaRC2.0 will be used. The student will be a participant in WASP/WARAPS
Application Deadline: 14.Aug.2024
8. Fully Funded PhD Position in Conversational AI
Summary of PhD Program:
The newly started project is titled “Thinking Fast and Slow: Real-time Speech Generation for Conversational AI”. The aim of the project is to develop AI-models capable of generating spoken responses in an incremental fashion, mirroring the nuanced and dynamic nature of human conversation. Our approach is inspired by our previous pioneering efforts in the realm of incremental and predictive models for dialogue, which have laid the groundwork for this project.
Application Deadline: 14.Aug.2024
9. Fully Funded PhD Position in protein design
Summary of PhD Program:
With a growing population and a decrease in the available natural resources on our planet, there is a great need for innovative production methods based on green chemistry. The main aim of this project is to develop new-to-nature protein-based catalysts for selective transformations applied to biopolymers and metabolites. The research area of the PhD student includes de novo protein design, enzyme engineering and synthetic biology to expand nature’s current repertoire with respect to selective biosynthesis.
Application Deadline: 15.Aug.2024
10. Fully Funded PhD Position in Digital Learning
Summary of PhD Program:
The doctoral student will focus on digital engineering education at KTH, where the conditions and limitations of complementary and integrated digital and in-person education will be examined. Examples of current topics we are interested in studying are how to create collaborative engineering education environments, the use of digital meetings and video in education, and assessment and examination in digital environments. The research approach will be design-based and grounded in the Community of Inquiry theoretical framework.

11. Fully Funded PhD Position in metallurgy of recycling of steels
Summary of PhD Program:
A project funded by Horizon Europe “Metallic Elements Dissipation Avoided by Life cycle design for Steel” (MEDALS) aims to increase the recyclability of steels by removing or mitigating the effects of unwanted elements that accumulate during recycling, so-called tramp elements. The successful candidate shall be expected to perform advanced simulation and modelling to optimise the handling of scrap to improve the quality of recycled material.
Application Deadline: 16.Aug.2024
12. Fully Funded PhD Position in Computer Vision and Deep Learning
Summary of PhD Program:
The advertised doctoral student position is for a VR-funded fundamental research project titled “SeDeCI – Semi-Supervised Deep Learning with Class Imbalanced Data.” The research aims to develop, but is not limited to, semi-supervised learning methods that leverage large-scale data in computer vision while effectively dealing with class data imbalances in a task-agnostic fashion. We seek a candidate who has experience in deep learning, particularly in semi-/self-supervised learning, as well as computer vision.
