2024 Institute & Initiative Doctoral Program campaign
Sorbonne Université campaign designed to award two doctoral contracts in the field of quantum information
Context and description
Within the framework of the Institutes and Initiatives of the Sorbonne University Alliance (ASU), the 4th year annual campaign to award doctoral contracts financed by the French Excellence Initiative (Idex) is open.
More specifically, the Quantum Information Center Sorbonne (QICS) will award two doctoral programs related to quantum information, from both the physics and computer science point of view. It includes:
-
Quantum computing (including simulation) and communications;
-
Hardware, software and foundational aspects;
-
Broad impact of quantum information (postquantum cryptography, machine learning, humanities, economical implications, etc.).
Each project includes a three-year doctoral contract and 10k€ environment.
CAMPAIGN STEPS & PROCESS
On May the 30th, le QICS auditioned 6 candidates to award two doctoral programs related to quantum information

Process
- students, please make sure to apply as soon as possible by sending your application to the project leaders,
- project leaders, you will then be able to submit the application of the candidate you selected for the project. deadline: before April 22
- link to submit candidate application ONLY by project leaders
- students, if selected, you will then be auditioned by a jury at the end of May
The recruitment campaign is divided into several phases:
- A call for doctoral research projects among researchers and lecturers at the Alliance Sorbonne-University. To be eligible, the project leader should follow the rules of the relevant doctoral school. Furthermore, the project leader should be the PhD supervisor and a member of a laboratory affiliated to the ASU.
Please submit your project through a LIMESURVEY available here
