Om jobbet
How can transport systems remain robust in an increasingly uncertain world? At Chalmers University of Technology, we are looking for a doctoral student who wants to explore this question and contribute to the development of resilient transport solutions in business networks. This is an opportunity to engage in collaborative, high-impact research at the intersection of supply chain management, industry practice, and societal challenges.
We are looking for a highly motivated PhD student to join the Division of Supply and Operations Management at the Department of Technology Management and Economics, Chalmers University of Technology. We offer an employment of up to five years.
The successful candidate will engage in a research project focusing on resilience and business networks. The project is led from Chalmers and joint with Swedish School of Textiles, University of Borås, School of Business, Economics, and Law, University of Gothenburg, and the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, and in collaboration with industry.
About us
The Department of Technology Management and Economics conducts research and education at the intersection of technological development and management/policy.
The division of Supply & Operations Management (SOM) research relates to supply chain management, and areas, such as, purchasing, industrial marketing, business networks, supply chain strategy, operations planning and control, material handling and freight transport. Digitalization, circularity and resilience are important drivers and enablers.
Our goal is to perform high quality research and education at bachelor, master and doctoral levels. We accomplish this by contributing to improvements in all our research areas, in theory as well as in practice. We focus mainly on empirical research in close interaction with industry.
About the research project 
Over the past decade, several events have caused major disruptions to global transport and supply chains. The research project, in which the PhD student will be working, focuses on how resilient transport solutions are developed within business networks and on the importance of managing tensions in this context.
The project aims to examine, through case studies, the opportunities and obstacles shaping the development of resilient supply chains in a turbulent geopolitical environment. The theoretical frameworks and analysis will be guided by the 'industrial network approach', emphasizing buyer-supplier relationships and networks.
The project will involve three sub-studies focusing on different industrial applications: (1) fashion products, (2) advanced transport solutions, and (3) logistics, transport, and distribution services. By analyzing changes in supplier relationships and supply chains of the sub-studies, the objective is to advance knowledge of resilience in business networks and transport systems. In turn, the project is to contribute to the development and transformation of transport networks and create value for both industry and policy actors.

Do you want to join an international team of expertise to support industry in better understanding which defects in fibre-reinforced composite structures that can be accepted without compromising quality or safety? We have an open position for a doctoral candidate within LEGEND – a European doctoral network developing increased understanding of, and computational tools for studying the effects of defects in composite structures.
About us
The Doctoral student position is placed at the Division of Computational Mechanics and Materials Engineering, which belongs to the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Chalmers University of Technology. We foster an inclusive, friendly, and helpful work environment to which we welcome you to contribute. Our activities integrate computational mechanics and advanced materials technology, combining multidisciplinary expertise to predict, understand, and elevate the performance of engineering materials and structures.

Within the project, you will also be connected to an international team of experts in the area of mechanics of composites through LEGEND – a Marie Sklodowska Curie Action doctoral network project. LEGEND, encompassing a collection of European research organisations and industries, will recruit 14 doctoral candidates, offering a lot of cross-over collaboration. For more information, please visit the LEGEND https://www.legend-msca-dn.com/.
About the research project 
This project focuses on redefining how defects are assessed in composite aerospace structures - helping industry move beyond overly conservative repair or discard decisions. The Doctoral student will develop an advanced global–local modelling approach that captures how individual and interacting defects influence structural performance.
By combining high-fidelity simulations with experimental testing of lab-scale components, our research will generate new data, validate predictive models, and establish improved defect acceptance criteria. The outcome will be a practical, industry-ready methodology that enables safer, more cost-efficient decisions when dealing with defects in composite components.
The project will involve collaborations and secondments (in total 8 months during the first three years) at University of Kore (2 months) and Leonardo S.p.A. (6 months) in Italy.
Who we are looking for
The following requirements are mandatory:
To qualify as a Doctoral student, you must have a Master's degree (masterexamen) of 120 credits or a Master’s degree (magisterexamen) of 60 credits* in Applied Mechanics, Structural Engineering, Computational Engineering, Engineering Mathematics, Engineering Physics or similar.
Documented experience (education/courses or thesis project with high grades) in the finite element method and the mechanics of fibre-reinforced polymers.
Interest and high skills in programming and numerical methods
Strong written and verbal communication skills in English
*for students with an education earned outside of Sweden, a 4-year Bachelor’s degree is accepted.
We also expect that you are analytical, ambitious, independent, and a strong team player that thrives through collaboration.
The following experience will strengthen your application:
Documented knowledge (education/courses or thesis project) in computational homogenisation and/or computational micro/mesoscale modelling.
What you will do
Develop your scientific concepts and communicate the results of your research through written scientific publications and oral presentations at international conferences.
Collaborate with fellow doctoral candidates within the LEGEND project, utilising synergies between projects.
Actively participate in General Assembly meetings and doctoral training events within LEGEND, distributed across Europe.
Take courses at an advanced level within the Graduate school of Solid and Structural Mechanics.
Develop and implement a computational framework that links small-scale material defects to large-scale structural performance, enabling accurate prediction of how defects affect strength, stiffness, and fracture behaviour.
Teach on Chalmers' undergraduate level corresponding to 10 percent of working hours.
Contract terms
The Doctoral student positions are fully funded from start.
The position is a fixed-term appointment of four years, with the possibility to teach up to 10%, which extends the position up to four and a half years.
Doctoral studies require physical presence throughout the entire study period. A valid residence permit must be presented by the study start date; otherwise the admission may be withdrawn.
Applicants must not already be in possession of a doctoral degree. Researchers who have successfully defended their doctoral thesis but who have not yet formally been awarded the doctoral degree will not be considered eligible.
Applicants must not not have resided, worked, or studied in Sweden for more than 12 months in the 3 years immediately prior to the date of recruitment. Compulsory national service, short stays such as holidays, and time spent as part of a procedure for obtaining refugee status under the Geneva Convention are not taken into account.
To sign the contract, the chosen candidate must fulfil the http://ec.europa.eu/research/mariecurieactions.
The MSCA DN programme offers a highly competitive and attractive salary and working conditions. The chosen candidate will receive a salary in accordance with the MSCA regulations.
