Dear colleagues:

I want to draw your attention on *the new doctoral program SEED* that is
co-funded by the EU (program MSC COFUND) and currently *offers 21 PhD
positions to candidates all over the world*.

SEED, which targets 5 societal transitions (digital, energy,
environmental, industrial and health of the future), is an
interdisciplinary, international and intersectoral doctoral training
programme offered by IMT Atlantique and currently 20 partners from
around the world.

Over its 60-months lifespan, SEED will offer 40 fully funded early-stage
researcher (ESR) positions within three different tracks that offer
different combinations of international and academic/non-academic
co-supervisions and mobility.

More complete information can be found on the SEED web site

*https://www.imt-atlantique.fr/seed*

in particular, the list of currently-open PhD topics, the web-based
application system, eligibility and financial conditions and information
for external expert reviewers.

We are contacting you in the hope that this program may be interesting:

* *For your students who are currently finalizing their master-level
studies*
* *For you (as a remunerated) expert reviewer*

Applications to the program are *now open for students and experts* at

Please forward the information on the program to students. If you
