The Astronomy and Astrophysics program from The University of Arizona emphasizes research at the frontiers of astrophysics. Areas of concentration are theoretical, observational, and instrumentational astronomy. 

The International Max Planck Research School for Solar System Science at the University of Göttingen (IMPRS, Solar System School) is a collaboration of the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research and the University of Göttingen offering an international PhD programme in physics.

The Astrophysics PhD program at Tufts University offers a full range of graduate level courses and research opportunities in astronomy, biophysics, condensed matter physics, cosmology, elementary particle physics, and quantum information.

In the beginning of every fall semester, the department organizes a series of events (graduate orientation, various seminars and presentations) to provide an in-depth overview of research activities in the department. We offer a Astronomy and Astrophysics degree at the Johns Hopkins University. 

The Department of Astronomy at the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign offers graduate programs leading to the Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees.  

Aim of the PhD programme in Astronomy from the University of Padua is the formation of young researchers of excellence at international level in their specific field of research in astronomy and astrophysics.

At the University of Virginia, we offer our graduate students a phd degree in Astronomy. Join us in our journey! 

The Australian National University provides PhD Astronomy and Astrophysics students with a vibrant research community and outstanding program support. 

At the division of Astronomy and Space Physics at Uppsala University we are doing research across a range of fields, from space in Earth's direct vicinity to the first stars in the universe found in distant galaxies.

Our unique approach to the scientific aspects of Astrobiology - Science research at The Open University UK combines fieldwork, laboratory simulations, thermochemical modelling and in situ observations.

The International Max Planck Research School for Precision Tests of Fundamental Symmetries in Particle Physics, Nuclear Physics, Atomic Physics and Astroparticle Physics is a combined effort of the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics (MPIK) in collaboration with Heidelberg University.

The Astronomy Department at the Yale University welcomes applications for our Ph.D. graduate program. 

The University of Padua proposes a national PhD Programme in Technologies for Fundamental Research in Physics and Astrophysics, a study track with strong multidisciplinary features, aiming to develop technological and engineering expertise and skills that are essential for fundamental research in Physics and Astrophysics.

The Department of Physics and Astronomy at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam offers an active and engaged intellectual community composed of researchers from around the world.

To live and work under the sky of Hawai‘i is an extraordinary privilege. The Institute for Astronomy’s unmatched access to the telescopes and instruments on Maunakea and Haleakala represents a unique resource for education as well as research. This graduate degree in Astronomy is offered at University of Hawaii at Manoa. 

Research in planetary and space science (PSS) covers a wide variety of Solar System science and exploration. We investigate the origin and evolution of the Solar System through the physical, geological, chemical and biological processes that drive it. 

Working closely with members of the Astrobiology and Habitats for Life research area at The Open University UK, we use a variety of experimental techniques, including molecular biology, mineralogy and geochemistry, and orbital flight experiments, to understand the way in which microorganisms persist in extreme environments and how this could be applied to environments elsewhere.

The question of whether life exists beyond Earth is eons old, yet it is only relatively recently that space missions have been launched to help answer this. This Governance and Ethics programme is offered at The Open University UK.

Research in the School of Physics and Astronomy at the University of St Andrews is focused in three main areas of excellence: astrophysics, condensed matter physics, and photonics.

Welcome to the University of Tours's Energy, Materials, Earth and Universe Science Doctoral Program. Step into the realms of cutting-edge research and exploration at our esteemed university, where we offer a comprehensive doctoral program spanning energy, materials, earth science, and universe science.
