  • Are you motivated to take a step towards a doctorate and open up exciting career opportunities? As a PhD Candidate with us, you will work to achieve your doctorate, and at the same time gain valuable experience that qualifies you for a further career in higher education and research, in and outside academia.This is NTNUNTNU is a broad-based university with a technical-scientific profile and a focus in professional education. The university is located in three cities with headquarters in Trondheim.At NTNU, 9,000 employees and 43,000 students work to create knowledge for a better world.You will find more information about working at NTNU and the application process here. Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KHQjc4ndas&t=41sAbout the positionWe have a vacant 100% PhD position in the MRI Physics Group at the Department of Physics, NTNU.The project is an interdisciplinary collaboration between the MRI Physics Group and the X-ray Physics Group at the Department of Physics. In the MRI Physics Group, we aim to improve image quality in medical imaging for diagnostic purposes and neuroscience research. Accurate and sensitive imaging is crucial for diagnosis, research, and monitoring of neurodegenerative diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, and ALS. Among other techniques, we use functional MRI (fMRI), which is a method for measuring brain activity and connectivity between nerve cells.MRI measurements can be affected by magnetic field inhomogeneities, resulting in geometric distortion and signal loss in the images. The aim of the project is to investigate the potential of using Implicit Neural Representation (INR), a class of neural networks, for reconstructing MR images directly from MR signals. By incorporating a physical model of the MR signal into the training of the INR network, we aim to compensate for the effects of magnetic field inhomogeneities in the reconstructed images.Initially, this approach will be applied to functional MRI of the spinal cord, based on data acquired using a high-field MRI system (7 Tesla). NTNU hosts Norway's first, and currently only, 7T MRI system for clinical use and research. We will also investigate the broader potential of INR-based image reconstruction for various MRI applications, including industrial applications in geology.Your immediate leader will be the Head of Department.Duties of the positionSimulate MRI data and model disturbances arising from various physical sourcesDevelop, implement and train INR models for MRI time-series dataAnalyze functional MRI data of the spinal cordPresent research findings in written form through academic publicationsPresent research findings orally and participate in international conferencesAssist with teaching activitiesBe prepared for changes to your work duties after employment.Required selection criteriaYou must have a relevant Master's degree in physics, mathematics, biomedical engineering, computer science or equivalent.

The university is located in three cities with headquarters in Trondheim.At NTNU, 9,000 employees and 43,000 students work to create knowledge for a better world.You will find more information about working at NTNU and the application process here. Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KHQjc4ndas&t=41sAbout the positionThe central theme of this PhD is to investigate, from a sociotechnical perspective, how Norwegian public-sector agencies and private companies navigate digital sovereignty challenges arising from increasingly centralized and platformized digital infrastructures.As digitalization accelerates, debate has shifted from societal consequences to understanding how organizations become dependent on systems and services they do not control, and how such digital dependencies affect their capacity for independent decision-making. In Europe, these concerns have driven major regulatory developments, notably the EU AI Act and related digital sovereignty initiatives, which introduce risk- and rights-based approaches but often leave underlying digital dependencies unaddressed.Even with clear legal frameworks, the dependencies that Norwegian organizations develop on global platform companies, cloud providers, and proprietary software vendors remain difficult to identify and assess. These dependencies arise not only from technical limitations but also from interactions among algorithms, data flows, platform architectures, workflows, and contracts, leaving organizations unable to switch providers, access their own data, or modify systems without significant cost or disruption.Addressing these challenges requires new expertise, assessment methods, and governance models capable of identifying where power is concentrated and how it might be reconfigured to preserve organizational autonomy and national digital sovereignty. While principles such as transparency, fairness, and accountability are widely endorsed, they offer limited operational guidance for exercising meaningful choice over digital dependencies, creating a gap between sovereignty as a regulatory ideal and sovereignty as practical capacity.This PhD project aims to address this gap by investigating how Norwegian public and private organizations can develop strategies to reconfigure digital dependencies through governance arrangements, architectural alternatives, and collective action to achieve and maintain digital sovereignty. The project will contribute to a growing community of researchers examining digital sovereignty. Its disciplinary home is Information Systems (IS), as the sociotechnical challenges of digital sovereignty require knowledge beyond the technical to unpack the infrastructural, legal, organizational, and ethical dimensions of digital sovereignty in the Norwegian context.As a PhD Candidate, you will work toward your doctorate while gaining experience that qualifies you for a further career in research, in and outside academia. Your immediate leader will be the head of the AIT group. Duties of the positionComplete the doctoral education until obtaining a doctorateCarry out and publish research of good quality within the framework described aboveParticipate in the national research community on digital sovereigntyParticipate in international activities such as conferences and/or research stays at foreign educational institutionsBe prepared for changes to your work duties after employment.Required selection criteriaYou must meet the requirements for admission to the faculty's PhD program in Computer Science, see Section 6-1 of the PhD regulations for more information.You must have a relevant Master's degree in information systems or interdisciplinary background within computing, social sciences, law or equivalent.

  • This is NTNUNTNU is a broad-based university with a technical-scientific profile and a focus in professional education. The university is located in three cities with headquarters in Trondheim.At NTNU, 9,000 employees and 43,000 students work to create knowledge for a better world.You will find more information about working at NTNU and the application process here. Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KHQjc4ndas&t=41sAbout the positionAre you motivated to take a step towards a doctorate and open up exciting career opportunities? Do you have a background in electrical power engineering, operations research, or a related field, and are you interested in energy systems and markets? As a PhD candidate with us, you will work to achieve your doctorate, and at the same time gain valuable experience that qualifies you for a further career in higher education and research, both in and outside academia. The Department of Electric Energy (IEL) at NTNU is seeking a highly motivated candidate for a full-time (100%) PhD position for 3 years as part of the Norwegian Centre on AI for Decisions (aiD). You will join the Electricity Markets and Energy System Planning (EMESP) research group at IEL, where we foster an open, inclusive, and collaborative working environment.Our work environment is defined by its friendly and supportive atmosphere, with regular gatherings such as professional meetings within the research group, weekly colloquia, shared lunches, and “Friday coffee” sessions to end the week. These formal and informal events offer opportunities to share ideas, celebrate milestones, and build relationships. PhD candidates also organize social activities open to everyone interested, fostering a welcoming and inclusive community.Your immediate Line Manager will be the Head of Department.About the projectThe position will be part of aiD, the Norwegian Centre on AI for Decisions, an interdisciplinary national AI center led by NTNU and SINTEF. AID brings together academic institutions, research organizations, and more than 50 professional organizations. Its primary objective is to advance AI for decision-making through fundamental research and real-world use cases, ensuring that AI-enhanced human decisions and autonomous systems are effective, safe, and trustworthy in sectors critical to society.This PhD project will contribute to aiD by developing trustworthy AI-supported methods for multimarket bidding and decision support in Nordic power markets. The rapid integration of wind power, battery storage, and other flexible resources is creating new opportunities for market participation, but also more complex decision-making problems. Energy producers increasingly need to coordinate decisions across day-ahead, balancing, and other electricity markets while dealing with uncertain renewable generation, activation needs, regulation and imbalance prices, and rapidly changing market conditions. Recent developments such as 15-minute market time units, automated mFRR energy activation, and flow-based market coupling further increase the need for decision-support methods that are fast, robust, risk-aware, and suitable for real-time operation.The project will focus on how AI and mathematical optimization can be combined to support sequential bidding decisions under uncertainty. The initial use case will consider a wind power operator with battery storage participating in the day-ahead market and the mFRR capacity and energy activation markets. The research will investigate how probabilistic forecasts, market-state and regime information, and the future value of battery flexibility can be incorporated into bidding decisions. A central scientific question will be to determine which parts of the decision problem are best handled by data-driven learning and which should remain within structured optimization. In line with AID’s research areas, the project will emphasize knowledge embedding, uncertainty representation, risk-aware decision-making, computational efficiency, generalization under changing market conditions, and safe constraint handling.The PhD candidate will develop and validate decision-support methods based on deep reinforcement learning, stochastic optimization, and hybrid combinations of learning and optimization. Learning-based policies will be compared with equivalent rolling stochastic optimization benchmarks operating with the same information and operational constraints. The project will also explore how AI can be used to approximate, accelerate, contextualize, or enhance optimization, for example by learning future flexibility value, selecting relevant uncertainty scenarios, or reducing computational complexity. The methods will initially be tested for coordinated day-ahead and mFRR market participation and may later be extended to more strongly coupled market combinations and other flexible energy resources. The project therefore offers the opportunity to work at the intersection of artificial intelligence, optimization, electricity markets, and renewable energy systems, while addressing the growing need for trustworthy and computationally practical AI-supported decision making in future power markets.Duties of the positionCarry out research of high quality within the framework described aboveParticipate in activities of the EMESP research groupComplete academic training consisting of coursework corresponding to a minimum 30 ECTSContribute to publications in relevant journals and to popular science disseminationParticipate in international activities such as conferences and/or research stays at foreign educational institutions Career-enhancing work, which is in addition to the research project and doctoral education, may be offered to a candidate who demonstrates clear motivation and ability for such work, and if the Department determines there is a need.
