Denmark : Vacant PhD scholarships at Copenhagen Business School

Sponsored Links

If you are among the top students in your field, and you are interested in acquiring research skills at a very high level, the three-year PhD programme at Copenhagen Business School (CBS) may be for you. The programme allows you to conduct research within a topic of your own choice under the supervision of CBS professors, and supported by research training courses. The programme is highly international, and you are expected to participate in international research conferences and spend time abroad as a visiting PhD student. See the CBS homepage for more information about the PhD programme, http://uk.cbs.dk/phd.

CBS PhD graduates are held in high esteem not only in academia and research institutions but also in government and business where their research qualifications are increasingly demanded. Two thirds of CBS PhD graduates go on to employment outside universities and public research institutions.
 
CBS now invites applications for PhD scholarships. The scholarships are fully salaried positions, according to the national Danish collective agreement.
 
Your application should include a research proposal that addresses a topic within the CBS research profile. CBS covers all of the classic fields within business economics and business languages connected with the management and operation of public and private organizations – for example, marketing, finance, accounting, organization and translation. In addition, research is carried out in a number of subjects important for the understanding of the challenges firms face in the global knowledge society. These include not only business law, informatics, innovation, international economics, inter-cultural understanding, communication and media research, but also business oriented research in such fields as sociology, political science, anthropology, history, philosophy, design, and art. Please consult the CBS homepage http://www.cbs.dk/en/Researchfor further information about the research topics of CBS.
Potential applicants must identify a preferred department for their PhD studies and indicate how the research proposal might fit with existing CBS research.
 
Copenhagen Business School has a broad commitment to the excellence, distinctiveness and relevance of its teaching and research programmes. Candidates who wish to join us should demonstrate enthusiasm for working in an organisation of this type (highlighting, for example, relevant business, educational and dissemination activities).
