Questions students ask
Does Aarhus University accept international applicants?
10 of its 23 verified calls state that international applicants are eligible, and 13 do not say. Eligibility is set call by call, so read it on each record before applying.
What levels does Aarhus University fund?
By its verified calls on record: PhD (23). Each record shows the funding amount the institute states, where it states one.
When does Aarhus University usually set its deadlines?
Its recorded deadlines fall most often in October, November and December. Closed rounds stay listed on this page, so the pattern stays visible.
How do I apply to Aarhus University?
Each call links to its page on au.dk, and you apply there, to the institute directly. StemSkills Lab does not take applications and never lists a call that charges a fee to apply.
How often is this page updated?
New calls are added through the week, and every record carries the date it was last verified on the funding organisation's own website. Records whose deadlines pass are closed automatically, so anything listed here was open at its last check.
Can I get deadline reminders?
Yes. The alerts box on this page sends a reminder before a deadline you choose, plus a short weekly note of new calls in your area. It is free.
