Ph.D. scholarships in Software Engineering - University of Groningen, The Netherlands

The Software Engineering & Architecture (SEARCH) group at the University of Groningen is committed to advancing the state of the art in the field of software architecture. The group aims to achieve that by carrying out joint research projects with universities, research institutes, and industrial partners, thus combining academic know-how with industrial practice. The research topics of the SEARCH group include software architecture design and evaluation, architectural knowledge, software product lines, architectural patterns and pattern languages, architecture-centric evolution, and service-oriented architectures. For more information please check our website (http://search.cs.rug.nl/ and http://www.cs.rug.nl/~paris/) or email us (paris@cs.rug.nl).

The SEARCH group is looking for excellent candidates that wish to apply for scholarships from the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences. Prospective PhD students have substantial freedom in deciding upon their research. They may work on one of the group’s existing research projects or submit their own research proposal, in coordination with the group head.
