The Doctoral Schools of the GS Physics PhD program supervise the PhD students throughout their thesis, by appointing referents who interact with them regularly.

EDOM : During the course of their thesis, PhD students have access to an individual monitoring committee, an advisory body that ensures, through annual meetings with the student, that their doctoral training is going well. This committee monitors the progress of the PhD student in his/her ability to present his/her research work. It helps the PhD student to take stock of the progress of his or her doctoral training, as well as the state of preparation for his or her future career.

AAIF : The AAIF doctoral school organizes a post-thesis training during which PhD students can meet the presidents of the A&A sections of the CNRS, CNU and CNAP, meet company managers from the aerospace sector, and work on writing CVs and application letters under the supervision of recruitment professionals. In 2021, the AAIF ED has also established a partnership with PhDTalent to promote the skills of these PhD students on social networks (LinkedIn, Twitter), to post job offers selected from keywords adapted to their skills and expertise.  

• EDPIF : For each PhD student, an individual monitoring committee is set up, independent of the thesis director. A meeting concerning the progress of the thesis and the future is organized with the monitoring committee, the PhD student and the supervisors at the end of each year of the thesis (at least). During this meeting, the monitoring committee must also discuss with the supervisor(s) in the absence of the PhD student and conversely with the PhD student without the supervisor(s). At the end of this meeting, the follow-up committee sends its report on the meeting to the ED and possibly makes recommendations on the continuation of the thesis and on re-registration. Additional meetings of the follow-up committee are organized for any thesis presenting specific problems, whatever their nature, or extending, as an exception, over all or part of a fourth year. For more details see : https://www.edpif.org/fr/parcours/suivi.php
• PHENIICS : Each PhD student is supervised by a person who follows him/her throughout the thesis. The progress of the thesis work and the training courses followed are reviewed each year at the time of registration. A sponsorship system is also in place in most laboratories. In case of problems revealed either during the annual interview or during the course of the thesis thanks to the sponsorship system, a supervisory committee is set up to understand the nature of the problems and to propose solutions.

PhD students enrolled in the Doctoral Schools of the GS Physics program find employment in both the academic and private sectors.

Approximately half of our PhDs eventually find a job in the field of research in universities or large research organizations in France (CNRS, CEA, ONERA, etc...) or abroad. Industry is also a very important outlet. Most of our PhDs work in technical or technological fields that allow them to make the most of the skills they have acquired. They are divided between large groups (Thales, Saint Gobain, etc.), SMEs and technological start-ups. 

Over a 10-year period, about 30% of PhDs enter the world of academic research in France or abroad. Some go on to secondary education. Most pursue a career in the private sector with a very wide range of scientific and management professions in France or abroad. The number of unemployed PhDs is around 3%. 

While the historical career outlet of the PhD is higher education and research, a significant and growing number of PhDs are pursuing their careers in the private sector, in many types of functions, and not only in R&D. According to the statistical study conducted in 2017 by the MESR on PhDs who graduated in 2015, 46% of PhDs in physics have a job in the academic sector and exactly as many in the private sector, of which only 20% are in R&D. For more details see : https://www.edpif.org/fr/parcours/poursuite.php

More than half of the PhDs are employed in the academic world in France (universities and research organizations) or abroad. Many PhDs also join the R&D departments of large technology-based groups (Thales, Safran, Areva, EDF, etc.), while others find employment in small and medium-sized companies with high industrial and technological value or in start-ups, of which they may also be founders.

PhD Vacancy

Introduction.

Our research team has identified gaps in the toolkit of outcome measures used in evaluating the impact of healthcare interventions, particularly in non-curative care.

Several broad outcome measures of wellbeing have been developed for outcome measurement in non-curative care, including ICECAP, ASCOT, EQ-HWB, SWB-5D, QOL-ACC, WIX and WOOP. These measures are at different stages of development and are intended for use in different health and social care contexts. However, the performance of these measures in assessing the benefits of non-curative technologies is still unclear. Without comparative psychometric evidence it is difficult to inform further development of these and other measures, and for users to know which measure to select for their specific purpose or particular context.

To address this gap, we are seeking candidates with expertise in psychometrics to contribute to the evaluation of the outcome measures listed above. The successful candidate will play a key role in assessing the validity, reliability, and comparative performance of these measures, as well as contributing to the refinement of their applications where necessary.

This role offers an exciting opportunity to advance the measurement of outcomes in non-curative care. If you have a background in psychometrics and a passion for improving healthcare evaluation, we encourage you to apply and be part of our research team.

Job description

The PhD candidate will be part of a team conducting a large multi-instrument comparison study and contribute to the further validation and development of a set of wellbeing measures by investigating their psychometric properties in different contexts. The tasks of the PhD involve survey design, data collection, data analysis and disseminating findings through presentations, articles and other channels of interest. The study has two empirical parts: The first part involves cross-sectional data collection in a large and varied online sample (N=7000), presenting respondents with several wellbeing measures concurrently to assess and compare their psychometric performance. The second part involves case studies on selected technologies/interventions/populations aimed at assessing the validity of measures in specific contexts and their sensitivity to detect wellbeing improvements.

Expected outputs will include a protocol paper describing the methodology of the data collection, an overview paper on the validity and reliability of wellbeing measures in the general population and at least one case study report. There is room for the candidate to develop own ideas based on these data collections. In addition, the surveys and collected data need to be prepared for publishing in an open access repository, so that interested researchers can leverage the data for a range of other objectives. Evidence generated in this research can guide further development of wellbeing measures and choices of the appropriate measure in future evaluations of non-curative care.

Job requirements

The successful applicant is expected to have a recent or almost completed MSc degree in a relevant discipline, e.g., psychology, statistics, health sciences, health economics, sociology, or cognitive science. The ideal candidate has a quantitative background, experience with quantitative research methods and a motivation for psychometric research in the field of healthcare. Proficiency in research methods, statistics and data analysis techniques are desirable. Previous experience or coursework in psychometrics or related areas is an advantage. Applicants must able to collaborate closely in a multidisciplinary group of researchers from different departments of the Erasmus University Rotterdam and other universities. Excellent communication and writing skills in English are required, while good skills in Dutch is an advantage. Computer skills should at least include Microsoft office, and R, STATA or similar statistical software.

Have you ever thought about the role of a research proposal for a PhD or any other degree? As a student, you must have written it for the sake of your grades. Well, here we intend to tell you what a research proposal actually means.

A research proposal is an essential instrument that academics and college students may use to finish their dissertations, get financing for projects, or finish prerequisites for their courses. It highlights the significance of your investigation and provides an overview of your research problem-solving strategy. It's generally helpful to have some basic knowledge about this kind of document and the most effective ways to arrange it before beginning work on a project.

Therefore, today’s blog elaborates on the meaning and importance of a research proposal and describes how to write research proposal for PhD . So, without any more delays, let’s begin!  

Table of Contents

What is research proposal, what is the purpose of the research proposal, how to write research proposal for phd, tips for research proposal for phd.

• Call To Action

A research proposal is a well-organised document that outlines the subject of your study and the methodology you will use to explore and evaluate a certain question. It usually thoroughly examines the ideas that back up your hypothesis, which is an anticipated response to this question.

It also demonstrates the research approaches, significance, data collection tools you intend to employ, and the useful actions you will take to carry out your research. In addition to introducing readers to your topic, a research proposal goes over the main goals of your study and how it could advance knowledge in an academic discipline or add value to the existing field of study. 

To get help with a research proposal for admission to European universities, you can contact our counsellors at Meridean Overseas

Talk to our Counsellors

There are various reasons for a person to write a research proposal; some of the reasons are-

Applying to work for a firm or research organisation.

Persuading a university or research supervisor that your work may fulfil the criteria for a degree program.

Demonstrating to institutions that might provide financial support for the significance of your study.

Proving your expertise in a topic of study and your capacity for research.

Outline the main ideas and aims of your research.

Claiming that the subject of your study has applications in the neighbourhood or in larger society.

Recognising potential obstacles in your research approach.

The section sheds light on the structure and formatting required for writing a research proposal for PhD; here is the guide for research proposals for PhD in European Universities and the essentials:

Research Proposal Guide for PhD in European Universities

The essential components of a strong research proposal are as follows. Below are the items that fit perfectly for a research proposal format for a Ph.D.:

Although this is subject to change, be careful to include crucial "keywords" that will connect your submission to funding opportunities, suitable supervisors, and other relevant details.

Project Summary

A reader who is not an expert in this topic should be able to understand the purpose, importance, and anticipated results of the study in this part.

Project Details

In this area, make sure to create a strong and engaging base for your study. The further subsections that need to be included in this are as follows:

Research Questions

This section should include the hypothesis or problem to be addressed along with an explanation of the research question(s) (1-3 should be sufficient).

Your main strategy and justification (conceptual, theoretical, empirical, and normative, where applicable);

Importance of the study (both in academic and, if applicable, extracurricular domains).

Aims/Objectives of the Project

What information, evidence, example, analysis, testing, investigation, or examination are you seeking? Set up your objectives logically, for example.

This project's objective is to:

Give a study project synopsis.

Make it possible for a potential student to draft a research project.

Significance/ Contribution to the Discipline

This section should provide justification for the project on the basis of a review of the relevant academic sources or literature. You should also explain which texts you think are most crucial to the project, show that you understand the research questions, and point out any gaps in the body of knowledge that the study aims to fill. 

Your Research Capabilities

Please provide proof of your suitability for the proposed research project (past academic work, experiences, completed projects, etc.).

References Cited/Bibliography of Planned Reading (no word limit applies)

The reader should be able to tell from your references how well-versed in the literature you are and how you can add to it. In addition to the readings you have scheduled, make sure to cite any texts and other sources that you believe will be important to your analysis.

NOTE: Research Proposals vary in length according to university requirements, and the word limit varies from university to university. 

Also, read: Study PhD in Europe

The following tips will help you draft a research proposal that most closely adheres to the requirements of the institution:

Make sure your remarks are brief and to the point. A typical study proposal is four to seven pages long, or 2,500 to 3,500 words. When writing, remember that you should utilise exact terminology and precise words to stay within this length.

Concentrate solely on important research topics. Try concentrating on important topics and broad questions in your study project. These can help readers, particularly those who are not knowledgeable about the subject, understand the goal of your project and its general emphasis.

Edit and proofread your work. To ensure you're correctly expressing the facts, proofread each section of your research proposal for spelling and grammar mistakes. To find these mistakes in a digital file, think about employing a proofreading service or program from a reputable source.

Make use of an extensive vocabulary. Institutions frequently favour research proposals with academic language and formal terminology. Examining any publications your university has released could be beneficial if you want to know about its writing requirements and what your readership expects.

Make sure your research project has a distinct title. It is imperative that your project title utilises common language to ensure that readers grasp it right away. This strategy may help you obtain financing from an outside source.

Give credit to the authors of any works that are cited. It's critical to credit the writers of all books and articles you use in your work to prevent plagiarism concerns. Consider putting cited material in quotation marks or paraphrasing it in your own words, depending on the style you choose.

Do not send the same research proposal to several universities; this tends to affect the authenticity of the research.

Do not make the mistake of using online templates. As tempting as it sounds, evaluate the online research proposal templates and choose wisely.

Be very clear while writing your research proposal, as you are writing it for your PhD. If you wish to pursue your PhD and present a research proposal, in that case, you can exclude research findings, in-depth analysis and a comprehensive literature review.

Post-Doctoral Research Associate in Physics/Physical chemistry (EU-funded academic project)

Job information, offer description.

In our lab in Marseille, France, we use electrochemistry to use and study redox enzymes that catalyze the production of solar fuels: H 2 evolution, CO 2 reduction. Recently, in a collaboration with the Technical University of Munich, Germany, we have developed biohybrid systems where the enzymatic reactions are confined within a thin film made of a redox polymer. The reactants (but also the inhibitor of the enzyme, O 2 ) diffuse freely in the hydrated film, and the redox side chains of the polymer mediate electron transfer between the enzyme and the electrode. Because of the reaction/diffusion process, the film self-organizes into a steady-state structure, where different reactions may occur near the electrode and near the film/solution interface. This has major consequences on the efficiency of the system (current density), and on its life-time when the system operates in the presence of the inhibitor O 2 . Full protection is observed under certain conditions. 

In the context of an EIC PATHFINDER EU project, and within a consortium including groups from TU Munich (Germany), Fraunhofer IGB Straubing and Denmark Technical University, the team is looking for a post-doctoral researcher to extend the theoretical modeling of such reaction diffusion systems , under conditions where catalysis is bidirectional, when the electrons are not provided by the  electrode but from mediators in solution, or under conditions of radial (rather than linear) symmetry. 

We proceed by running simulations of the whole reaction diffusion system (using an in-house software), to identify the regime that are relevant to the experimental cases, and we then look for analytical solutions that can be used to predict experimental observables, such as current densities and life times. Experiments are used to provide values of the parameters that describe the system (geometry, rate constants, concentrations), and output figures of merit that can be compared to theoretical predictions. 

We expect the post-doc hired in this project to  run the simulations of the reaction-diffusion system describing the system, divide the responses in relevant cases and derive the analytical equations describing the behavior of the system in the cases. 

We wish to hire a person with a background in physics or physical chemistry , a strong motivation to work in a multicultural environment (physics/chemistry/biology), and experience working with differential equations.

Applications should be sent by email to [email protected] , and include a CV, the names and contact details of previous advisors, and a cover letter describing the candidate's expertise in relation to the project. 

The position is available immediately.

The lab is located in Marseille, on the southeast coast of France, in the Provence region. Marseille has a great countryside, it is connected by train to Paris and other large European cities.
