VTI and Lund University are offering two new PhD opportunities!

ECTRI member VTI, in collaboration with the Faculty of Engineering at Lund University are opening two PhD positions in packaging logistics and industrial electrical engineering:

PhD in Packaging Logistics (Retail & Logistics)
As e-commerce grows, so does the need for smarter, sustainable return systems. This project explores how digital transformation in return management can foster fossil-free, transport-efficient circular goods flows and support a sustainable freight transport system.

PhD in Industrial Electrical Engineering
This project explores bidirectional charging (Vehicle2Grid) for battery electric trucks in freight transport. You will mainly work with the project “Truck2Grid: Assessing V2G applications in freight transport”, financed by the Swedish Energy Agency.

Important: Applicants must submit applications to both VTI and Lund University. Check the links in the comments for more details.
