PERSEUS: the doctoral programme for the education of top-level researchers

The NTNU in Norway will start a new doctoral programme called PERSEUS. With this programme the NTNU aims to educate top-level researchers (PhD) contributing to solve societal challenges within the areas of energy, healthcare, manufacturing, mobility, and ocean-based technology, through the use of digital technologies.

PERSEUS is a collaboration between NTNU - Norway’s largest university, 11 top-level academic partners in 8 European countries, and 8 industrial partners within sectors of high societal relevance. The programme recruits 40 PhD candidates who want to contribute to a smart, safe and sustainable future by approaching these societal challenges within one of the following thematic areas: Big data and AI, Digital Twins, Internet of Things, Extended Reality and Information and Cyber Security.

 For the first call, starting in August, there are 25 positions to be filled. Find more information about the PERSEUS Doctoral programme here.
