Working at SICS

At the moment SICS have about 100 employed researchers, plus 20 Master Thesis students.

Senior researchers

Within the framework of SICS research agenda, the senior researchers have great opportunities to develop their own areas of interest. They are responsible for the funding of their own projects and typically lead research groups or laboratories at SICS. 42 of SICS senior researchers are Ph.D.s, 5 of them share their time as professors at KTH or Stockholm University.

PhD students

25% of SICS researchers are Ph.D. students at Swedish or international universities. They are employed by SICS and conduct their research in SICS funded projects.

Guest researchers and scholarships

Every year SICS attracts guest researchers and post docs from universities abroad, for instance from Europe, USA, China, Japan, Singapore and Egypt. We have young researchers on ERCIM Alain Bensoussan Fellowship and Marie Curie Intra-European Fellowship. Likewise, our own researchers go abroad as guest researchers to broaden their view, get new contacts and develop their expertise.

Master's Thesis students

Apart from the 100 researchers employed by SICS, about 20 students do their Master Theses work in SICS projects.
