The KIC InnoEnergy PhD School is for students who have technical excellence together with a drive for Business and Entrepreneurship (B&E). Students are taken into the PhD programme of one of the universities in the KIC InnoEnergy consortium, or into a double-degree or joint-degree arrangement with a pair of them. The students must then fulfill all the PhD requirements of that programme. The KIC InnoEnergy PhD School provides the further education and activities within B&E, and broadening of students into the other areas of InnoEnergy. The formal education within B&E will be given by important business and management schools as well as the partner universities.

This is the PhD School for you if you want to:

• do research in the field of sustainable energy and you want this research to have an impact in society improving peoples’ welfare,

• research and innovate in the field of sustainable energy to help a company or the whole industry being more competitive,

• research and innovate in the field of sustainable energy to startup a new company, either independently or within a corporation.

The PhD School is organised into several tracks, each one with a speciality in one of the Colocation Centres of KIC InnoEnergy. Each track covers a full PhD education, complemented with industrial internships/experiences and an insight into the entrepreneurial aspects of modern and future energy technology.
