1. Fully Funded PhD Position in Effects of Events and Faultiness on Multiteam System adaptation
Summary of PhD Program:
The project contains experimental studies in which multi-team systems are studied with participants in a laboratory setting, as well as field studies, in which members of multi-team systems in a variety of organizations will be interviewed and asked to fill in questionnaires over time. As a PhD student on this project, you will be involved in designing and conducting these laboratory and field studies in close collaboration with your supervisors. You will develop hypotheses, collect and analyse data, communicate with participants and organizations, write scientific papers, and present findings at scientific conferences.

2. Fully Funded PhD Position in Reducing the Environmental Impact of Medication Use
Summary of PhD Program:
This PhD project is part of the MUMC+ innovation budget initiative “Reducing the Environmental Impact of Medication Use”, embedded in the Dutch Green Deal Sustainable Healthcare 3.0, which includes a dedicated pillar on minimizing the environmental footprint of pharmaceuticals. You will investigate and implement solutions to reduce medication waste across the entire pharmaceutical pathway in hospitals, focusing on preventing pharmaceutical residues from entering wastewater, and designing sustainable interventions for high-emission clinical departments.

3. Fully Funded PhD Position in long-term history of the European Union’s Eastern enlargement
Summary of PhD Program:
We invite proposals from candidates interested in further exploring the long-term history of the EU’s Eastern enlargement. Potential projects should look at East-West European relations, informal contacts, and mutual imaginaries, focusing on the period between the 1970s and the 1990s. Projects may adopt the perspective of a country, an organization, or non-state actors in either Eastern or Western Europe—provided the perspective includes meaningful engagement with the other side of the East-West divide. Submitted proposals should reflect the awareness of the existing historiography on the topic, include a clearly formulated research question and an indication of the source base.
Application Deadline: 28-09-2025
4. Fully Funded PhD Position in Computational Cardiology
Summary of PhD Program:
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) affects millions worldwide, particularly elderly patients. Many of these patients also have mitral valve problems, creating a clinical dilemma: should we fix the valve or treat the underlying heart muscle disease? Wrong decisions mean unnecessary procedures for vulnerable patients or missed opportunities for effective treatment. Current diagnostic tools can’t definitively answer this question – but your research will change that.

5. Fully Funded PhD Position in Predicting Adherence to Digital Health-Promoting Interventions
Summary of PhD Program:
We are seeking a PhD candidate on predicting adherence to digital health-promoting interventions with Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) techniques. You will develop AI-based predictive models to anticipate user engagement, primarily using data collected through unobtrusive measurements (e.g., websites, smartphones, smartwatches). The goal is to construct a AI-driven framework that predicts both intervention use (e.g., content exposure, study protocol completion) and behavior. Better adherence prediction is crucial to support the development, tailoring and delivery of health promoting interventions, and ultimately their effectiveness and success.
Application Deadline: 20-10-2025
6. Fully Funded PhD Position in Language & Migration in Limburg
Summary of PhD Program:
You will have the freedom to develop your own research focus within this broader framework. Possible directions include the language-cultural practices or the sociolinguistic biographies of (former) labour migrants from Morocco, Poland, or Turkey; a historical or contemporary linguistic-ethnographic case study of a specific company, community, or institution; or an investigation of sociolinguistic change in relation to workplace automation or Euregional integration.

7. Fully Funded PhD Position in chemical modification of starch
Summary of PhD Program:
This PhD position gives you the opportunity to work at the cutting edge of polymer chemistry, green synthesis, and sustainable materials development. You’ll be part of a growing interdisciplinary research community working across sectors and borders to realise the ambitions of the European Green Deal—starting from something as humble as the waste from potato industry.
