Program Outline

The four-year curriculum consists of a pre-doctoral year at the University of Copenhagen or the Technical University of Denmark, followed by three years of PhD training at the University of

Copenhagen or the Technical University of Denmark:

Short rotation projects, lab selection for the long-term (PhD) project, and research-based courses are all part of the pre-doctoral year.

During the pre-doctoral year, classes account for around 15% of time spent, while lab-based research accounts for the remaining 85%.

To be eligible for the next three years of PhD study, all recipients must pass an examination at the conclusion of the pre-doctoral year.

At the start of the pre-doctoral year, all students in the Copenhagen Bioscience PhD program perform three two-week rotation projects.

Students may obtain exposure to the methodology, relevant scientific topics, and research atmosphere in the laboratories they are interested in joining via these rotation projects.

The student and supervisor are required to explore possible long-term project ideas throughout each rotation project.

The student establishes an agreement with one of their rotation supervisors to join their lab for the long-term (PhD) research after finishing the three rotation projects.

Funding

The Novo Nordisk Foundation will pay your whole salary as well as your education fees. All approved candidates will get funding for the first year without condition.

Funding for the next three years is given on the condition that a valid qualifying assessment be completed at the conclusion of the first (pre-doctoral) year. For a program starting in September 2022, up to sixteen employees will be supported.
