At the University of Göttingen -Public Law Foundation-, RTG 3209 China-GRASP: China´s Geoeconomic Rise and the Accumulation of Structural Power - Goettingen - Kiel, there are 11 positions as PhD researcher (all genders welcome) Entgeltgruppe 13 TV-L/75% to be filled. Starting date is 10/1/2026. The postions are limited to 09/30/2029. Are you fascinated by how China is reshaping the global order — and want to research it systematically? Our Research Training Group (RTG) brings together scholars from Economics, Political Science, and Area Studies at the University of Göttingen and the Kiel Institute for the World Economy to examine China’s geoeconomic rise in international politics. We study how China accumulates and exercises structural power across four interconnected domains: security, production of goods and services, finance and credit, and knowledge and information — and how states, firms, and societies respond. The framework of structural power, rooted in international political economy, gives your research a theoretically rigorous and policy-relevant foundation. Whether your background is in quantitative methods, qualitative research, or both, you will find a home here. A particular strength of our group is working with innovative data sources, including Chinese-language materials — giving you the opportunity to contribute original empirical findings where systematic data is still scarce. Your research will be situated within one of our 15 Focus Areas, grouped into five Research Clusters — giving your PhD project a clear thematic home while connecting it to a broader intellectual agenda — spanning China’s role in regions along the Belt and Road, in Africa, Eurasia, and Europe. While each Research Cluster has its own thematic focus, they are designed to speak to each other, and many projects productively bridge two or more clusters. As a PhD researcher, you will design and carry out your own original PhD project within this broader framework. You will engage with cutting-edge debates, develop advanced methodological skills, and join a cohort of researchers working on one of the most consequential topics in contemporary international relations.

PhD student position in Operations Management — KU Leuven
PhD student position in Operations Management — KU Leuven (ref. BAP-2026-224) Laatst aangepast: 02/04/26 The Research Centre for Operations Management, Faculty of Economics and Business, KU Leuven (Belgium) has a vacancy for a PhD student position at the intersection of Operations Research and Supply Chain Management. We are looking for a full-time PhD student to do research on supply chain visibility and network resilience, under the supervision of profs. Jannik Matuschke, Erik Demeulemeester, and Maximiliano Udenio. Project Global supply chains are large, complex networks that are typically opaque even to the firms that operate within them. A firm generally has visibility only to its direct (tier-1) suppliers and, at best, a small fraction of its tier-2 suppliers. However, empirical supply networks routinely span 10 to 15 tiers. This lack of visibility creates significant vulnerability: firms cannot anticipate, prepare for, or respond to disruptions that originate deep in their upstream network. This PhD project aims to develop a formal framework for supply chain visibility and resilience using tools from Operations Research and Operations Management, such as network theory, combinatorial optimization, and econometrics. The project pursues three interrelated aims: first, to characterize how network structure affects the cost and robustness of supply chain visibility; second, to study what actions a focal firm can take within its local sphere of influence to improve its resilience, including the design of its sourcing strategy; and third, to validate the theoretical framework empirically using real-world supply chain network data. Results of the research will be communicated through top-level publications in operations research and operations management journals, and through presentations at international conferences. Although the focus is on research, the candidate can be asked to give guidance to Master’s students, to be involved in teaching, and to supervise and correct exams. Profile You recently obtained your master’s degree (or you are about to graduate in 2026) in Business Engineering, Mathematics, Operations Research, Industrial Engineering, (Business) Economics, or a similar degree with an equivalent academic level. You have a strong interest in combinatorial optimization, network analysis, and/or supply chain management. Excellent results in prior studies are an asset (cum laude — distinction, or higher). Experience with optimization software (such as Gurobi, CPLEX, or similar) and/or programming languages (such as Python, MATLAB, or R) is an asset. You can conduct independent research (demonstrated, e.g., by an excellent Master’s thesis) as well as collaborate well in teams. You have excellent command of spoken and written English and are equipped with good communication skills. You are willing to participate in (international) seminars and conferences. You are willing to enroll in the PhD program of the Faculty of Economics and Business at KU Leuven, which entails 21 ECTS of relevant coursework. You will also give guidance to students, be involved in teaching activities and in the supervision of exams. Offer A fulltime PhD position for 1 year, starting 2026, September 15, renewable up to a maximum of four years upon yearly successful evaluations. The work should lead to a PhD degree. An interesting and diverse job within a dynamic and pleasant working environment, in a group conducting research at the highest international standards. A social, tolerant, and constructive workplace that offers ample opportunities for personal development. A correct and beneficial salary. Numerous opportunities for personal growth, illustrated by e.g., conference participation, “doctoral schools” courses on transferable skills, participation in educational initiatives, and publication opportunities.

Topic: Data-driven methods for integrating human preferences and fairness considerations into scheduling processes Website van de eenheid
PhD student position in Operations Research –Joint Ghent University & KU Leuven
Project The PhD researcher will work on various topics that relate to optimization (OR) and education, for which we see two interesting research tracks. The first track focusses on the practical organization of teaching, and may include problems like university course timetabling, high school timetabling, examination timetabling, master thesis defense assignments and scheduling and student project and master’s thesis assignments. For these problems, we wish to develop an algorithm that optimizes the planning/assignments, taking into account fairness issues (e.g. how should preferences of teachers and students be included and traded off?). The second research track investigates teaching of operations research. In particular, we want to investigate the impact of AI-assisted modeling exercises versus open-ended modeling exercises on students' modeling skills and critical thinking abilities. Does training with AI-generated solutions (e.g., ChatGPT) affect students’ ability to develop models from scratch? Does exposure to AI-generated solutions improve students’ ability to critically assess and correct errors in AI-generated models? Note that these research tracks offer flexibility for the PhD researcher to develop his/her own research ideas, and that plans or topics may evolve based on advancements in academic literature or emerging opportunities. Depending on the interests of the PhD researcher, and in consultation with the supervisors, priority may be given to one of both tracks. Nonetheless, the primary objective remains to publish high-quality research papers on this topic while ensuring practical relevance and/or a meaningful impact on teaching. Although the focus is definitely on research (incl. research on education), the candidate can be asked to give guidance to Bachelor and Master students, to be involved in teaching activities and to supervise exams. The successful candidate will be able to enroll in a fulltime PhD position at the Department of Business Informatics and Operations Management (Faculty of Economics and Business Administration) of Ghent University, as well as the Operations Management research group (Faculty of Economics and Business) of KU Leuven. Successful completion of the PhD project will lead to obtaining a (joint) doctoral degree (PhD). He/she will find a dynamic and pleasant working environment in Ghent/Brussels/Leuven, in groups that are actively involved in scientific research at the highest international level. Profile For this position, we are looking for someone with the following characteristics and assets: • You recently completed your master’s degree (or are about to complete it in 2026) in Engineering, Business Engineering, Mathematics, Data Science, Operations Research, Operations Management, Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, or a similar degree with an equivalent academic level. Excellent (honors level or higher) results in prior studies are a requirement. • You have a solid, mathematically oriented background, strong programming skills, and a keen interest in operations research. • You can conduct independent research (demonstrated, e.g., by an excellent MSc thesis) as well as collaborate well in teams. • You have excellent command of spoken and written English and are equipped with good communication skills. • You are willing to participate in seminars and conferences, be internationally mobile and to enroll in the PhD program of the Faculty of Economics and Business at KU Leuven, which entails 21-ECTS of relevant coursework. You will also give guidance to students, be involved in teaching activities and in the supervision of exams. Offer • A fulltime PhD position of maximum four years (upon successful yearly evaluations). • An interesting and diverse job. • A correct and beneficial salary (conform the official university scales). • The possibility to contribute to a societally very relevant research project. Given the personal contacts with people in academia and teaching, a large personal network can be formed or extended. • Numerous opportunities for personal growth, illustrated by e.g., conference participation, “doctoral schools” courses on transferable skills, participation in educational initiatives, and publication opportunities. • A social, tolerant, and constructive working environment that offers many and diverse opportunities for personal development.

Our research targets problems that arise in product assortment optimization, omni-channel inventory management, inventory theory, and demand forecasting. We also address challenges in supply chain resilience and sustainability modeling, and supply network design. Methodologically, our work is rooted in operations research and focuses, though not exclusively, on analytical modeling, stochastic optimization, and mathematical programming. The objective of our research is to develop an understanding of individual supply chain components (such as forecasting, product variety management, pricing, supply network design, and distribution channel management) and their interrelationships with other company functions like strategy, marketing and finance. Whenever possible, we strongly encourage industry collaboration to help bridge between theory and practice.
