Doctoral education

Research fields and supervising professors (School of Science)

Research field is an area of academic research in which the school has agreed to provide doctoral education. The Aalto Doctoral Programme in Science offers doctoral education in 6 research fields, which are based on the strong research traditions of the departments. The programme is a joint effort of the Department of Neuroscience and Biomedical Engineering, Department of Mathematics and Systems Analysis, Department of Applied Physics, Department of Computer Science, and Department of Industrial Engineering and Management.

The doctoral student chooses a research field when applying to the programme. The professor supervising the doctoral studies is agreed upon at the same time.
