Post Doctoral Research
The Democritus University of Thrace deems it important to support postdoctoral research, as it contributes to the qualitative and quantitative upgrading of scientific research. To this end, the University offers researchers the opportunity to undertake postdoctoral research and carry out scientific projects in academic fields represented within its Departments, in accordance with current legislation and the University’s internal rules and regulations.
The main objectives of conducting postdoctoral research at DUTH are, indicatively, the following:
- to enhance the quality of scientific research.
- to develop in the Departments of DUTH new research fields that are related to the scientific field of the postdoctoral researcher’s doctoral dissertation.
- to support the research needs of individual Departments.
- to address and resolve specific research challenges faced by the academic units.
- to achieve further results of the doctoral dissertations of postdoctoral researchers in new scientific directions of interest to each Department
- to transfer know-how
- to help scientists advance science and develop research and applications.
- to specialise post-docs in theoretical and applied areas of interdisciplinary fields, which are treated either by the individual academic units of DUTH or through the University Centre for Research and Innovation.
- to promote the quality and academic prestige of the research work carried out at the Democritus University of Thrace, as well as to strengthen the university’s international presence.
Prospective researchers can find detailed information regarding the application process and the conduct of postdoctoral research in the Postdoctoral Research , which form part of the University’s Internal .
