PhD program and graduate school
If you are interested in doing a PhD at the Section Safety & Security Science you can either apply for a vacancy for a PhD student at the section, or you can write your own research proposal in cooperation with one of the researchers of the section. In the latter case, you need to arrange external funding and your proposal needs to be approved by two professors of the overarching Department of Values, Technology & Innovation. The first step is always finding a supervisor at the section who would be interested to supervise your PhD.
