PhD position in Quantum Information Theory, Quantum Statistics, Quantum Communication, Quantum Learning Application deadline: Saturday, June 20, 2026Employer web page: https://www.eurecom.fr/en/job/quantum-information-quantum-statistics-quantum-com...Job type: PhDTags: quantum information theoryquantum communicationQuantum LearningTopic of PhD Research: The broad topic of research will be quantum information theory, quantum learning, quantum statistics, quantum source compression. The focus will be on conducting research of a highest quality. The student will be funded by an Agence National De Research project. Mastering quantum information is a challenging task today. It is at the intersection of physics, mathematics and engineering - computer science and electrical engineering. More so, the field is currently dominated more by physicists and mathematicians. The doctoral program advertised below provides a unique opportunity to gain expertise and become a leader in quantum information. Hosted at EURECOM - a top research institution of France that is strongly connected to leading universities of Europe including TU Munich, IMT, Telecom Paris - it provides an ideal environment to pursue research. With leading research labs such as INRIA right beside EURECOM, the doctoral student will get a unique opportunity to interact with leading researchers in France and beyond. Specific advantages of this job offering : A close hands-on regular interactions with faculty advisors and hands-on research mentoring and training. This is a crucial aspect to educate oneself and become an expert in this deep field of research. An opportunity to work on foundational problems and thereby obtain a thorough understanding of the intricacies of the field. For a student, GENUINELY interested to ACQUIRE KNOWLEDGE, and become an expert, the former is very valuable in shaping up one's career. This specific advantage offered in this position is perhaps less available in large research groups. The faculty advisor will provide an interested candidate with earlier and/or senior students so the candidate gets a good understanding of the research culture and the both the advantages and disadvantages of joining the group. Any candidate genuinely interested to elevate one's knowledge, learn research skills and enhance oneself is strongly encouraged to have a transparent interaction with the group they wish to join including past and present students who have experienced the research culture. This will be facilitated by transparently providing contacts of students who have worked with the faculty advisor. Requirements • Education Level / Degree : Masters • Field / specialty: Mathematics, Physics, Information Science, Statistics, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science. • Necessity : Strong interest and desire to conduct in mathematical research.
