PhD projects for 2026 start
This is a list of projects starting in 2026. 36 projects are currently advertised. We anticipate advertising about 40 projects in total. Please keep returning to this page to find new projects.
Because UNRISK encourages project co-development and the shaping of projects around student interests, the supervisory teams of many projects are not yet finalised. All students will be co-supervised by at least two supervisors.
