We are now recruiting our fifth cohort of talented and enthusiastic PhD researchers to start in September/October 2023 across our partner sites University College Cork, Munster Technological University, Maynooth University, Technological University Dublin and Trinity College Dublin.

The SFI Centre for Research Training in Advanced Networks for Sustainable Societies focuses on enabling technologies for future hyper-networks, including concepts such as network virtualization, dependable communications, Internet of Things, data-driven network management and applications in sustainable and independent living. This centre will train the next generation of researchers who will seek solutions to the technical and societal challenges of global hyper-connectivity.

Vision

“… train the next generation of doctoral graduates at the interface of technologies and social sciences, graduates who can stimulate socially-responsible and inclusive creativity and innovation in the fields of advanced communications. We aim to ensure that the next generations of communications technology are developed with human and societal benefit as a priority objective.”

Funding

Accepted PhD researchers will receive a stipend of €19,000 (tax-free) and a tuition fee contribution of €5,500 per annum for up to 4 years. Additional funding is available to support training, equipment, materials, travel expenses and other costs associated with research.

Diversity

To help address gender under-representation in science, applications from female applicants are strongly encouraged, as are those from international students and other under-represented groups. This reflects each of the supervisory institutions commitment to providing a diverse and open environment for students and faculty.

ADVANCE CRT is dedicated to promoting the role of women in science, and, therefore, explicitly invites women to apply to this call.
