PhD scholarship at Center for Economic Behaviour and Inequality (CEBI)

University of Copenhagen | Department of Economics

申请截止时间:1 Feb 2026

Are you passionate about providing new knowledge on behavior, inequality and economic policy? CEBI at the University of Copenhagen invites ambitious candidates to join our PhD program, starting 1 September 2026.

As a PhD scholar at CEBI, you will be part of a leading research community, tackling important questions such as: What drives disparities in economic outcomes and opportunities across societies? How do policy interventions reshape economic and social outcomes? And what role do behavioral factors play in sustaining or reducing inequality?

With access to Denmark’s globally unique data resources, you’ll explore these issues in depth, combining insights from many fields including Public Economics, Labor Economics, Econometrics, Behavioral Economics, and Political Economy. Supported by the Danish National Research Foundation, CEBI merges administrative data with behavioral experiments and surveys to offer an unmatched empirical foundation for your research.

CEBI is looking for an excellent new PhD student who has competencies in these areas and is interested in doing empirical research on economic behaviour and inequality. The current group includes 14 senior researchers, 10 junior researchers, 18 PhD students, 6 research assistants and 11 international researchers from Harvard University, UC Berkeley, New York University, Princeton University and University of Zürich.

For further information about CEBI see www.econ.ku.dk/cebi.

Job descriptionThe position is available for a 3-year period, a 4-year period (under the so-called 4+4 model), or a 5-year period (under the so-called 3+5 model).

PhD students are expected to

• Participate in research groups working on various research projects at CEBI
• Write scientific articles that are included in the PhD thesis of the applicant
• Attend PhD courses
• Participate in congresses/workshops/seminars
• Teach and disseminate your research
• Visit another international research institution for at least a few months
• Be supervised by a senior core CEBI member

Qualification requirementsWe seek a candidate with a strong academic background in Economics, qualifying for enrolment in the 5+3 programme (3 year PhD programme); 4+4 programme (4 year PhD programme) or 3+5 (5 year PhD programme) in Economics. In the assessment of the candidate’s qualifications, emphasis will be on grade performance in core economics courses, the project proposal and potential relevant professional experience or publications. Good English language skills are also important.

Applicants must have qualifications corresponding to master’s level related to the subject area of the project, e.g. MSc in Economics. If you have completed your education in Denmark, you must have a master’s degree covered by the collective agreement for academics in the state sector.

If you have completed your education outside of Denmark, you must either have a master’s degree equivalent to a Danish master’s degree (two years) or as minimum a bachelor’s degree equivalent to a Danish bachelor’s degree (three years) and be assessed as having professional qualifications at master's level.

If you have completed your education outside of Denmark, we will obtain an assessment of your education from the Danish Research Agency.
