Graduates from the Doctoral Programme in Engineering and Natural Sciences have great potential to achieve scientific and technological breakthroughs based on their in-depth knowledge and strong research skills. The research themes are connected to research fields in biotechnology, energy technology, physics, chemistry, and environmental engineering. The goal of our research is to find solutions to current societal challenges related to, for example, sustainable development, energy and the environment. Doctoral education is designed for students who are goal-oriented, motivated and committed to their projects. We offer our students opportunities to participate in interdisciplinary research, multidisciplinary networking with companies and the third sector as well as international research collaboration. Our graduates are ready to pursue research careers or take up demanding expert and development positions in business and society.
