Capacity building within research

We aim to make Denmark an international digital frontrunner. To achieve this, we will strive to strengthen the research capacity in Denmark by educating more young and talented computer science researchers and attracting more international computer science top-researchers to Denmark

 

DIREC will contribute to an extension of permanent positions at computer science departments with at least 50 researchers by 2025. The capacity growth will also make it possible to propel more education at the bachelor and master’s level of computer science across the Danish universities.

Below you will find an overview of the researchers and PhD students hired so far in relation to DIREC.
