The research group leaders have the detailed knowledge about the opportunities in their respective area of quantum-related research.
PhD and Postdoc in Quantum
The quantum research groups at the University of Copenhagen are continuously looking for PhD students and postdocs. To the right you can find the link to the University of Copenhagen Job Portal for all vacant positions (including PhD and Postdocs).
PhD Program
The standard PhD program in Copenhagen is a 3-year program, with entering PhD students expected to hold the equivalent of a Danish master's degree.
Students who have not completed the equivalent of a Danish master's

Quantum research related to each department
Many of the research groups are part of quantum-related centers and are part of the departments of the Faculty of Sciences at the University of Copenhagen. For more information about the departments and the centres see below:
The Niels Bohr Institute (NBI) host a variety of quantum-related research at the University of Copenhagen.
Research Centers:
- Novo Nordisk Quantum Computing Programme (NQCP)
- Danish Center for Quantum Optics (QUANTOP)
- Center for Hybrid Quantum Network (Hy-Q)
- Center for Quantum Devices (QDev)

The Department of Mathematical Sciences (MATH) host a variety of quantum-related research at the University of Copenhagen. Within the department you find the Centre for the Mathematics of Quantum Theory (QMATH) which host projects on all aspects of theoretical quantum information and mathematical physics. The department is furthermore the main host for the Quantum for Life center, which investigates applications of quantum computing to the life sciences.

Quantum Technologies is one of the four major research themes at the Department of Chemistry. The ambition is to become a significant player in the second quantum revolution, and the theme includes development of molecular spin-based qubits, development of quantum chemical or computational software, and the search for computational chemical problems for which “quantum advantage” could be achieved on future quantum computers.
Research groups:
- (HQC)2 – the Stephan Sauer group
- Molecular Electronics Theory – Solomon Group
- Stergios Piligkos Group
- Jesper Bendix Group

Research at the Department of Biology covers biology very broadly, spanning from atomic-level analyses of biomolecules to studies of organisms and ecosystems. Quantum effects can be important at multiple levels including in research performed to unravel and predict molecular recognition and interactions.
