An independent directory for graduate study. It brings together advertised PhD positions, MBA and doctoral programs, scholarships and fellowships, plus a way to find potential PhD supervisors, with links to the sources behind the listings. Browsing needs no account. Create an account to save programs, track applications, and receive optional deadline reminders. We do not represent the universities or award funding, and a listing is not a guarantee of admission, funding or current recruitment.
Where does the data come from?
Positions come from research and vacancy directories: EURAXESS (CC BY 4.0), DAAD PhDGermany, AcademicTransfer, NSF ETAP, ORISE, Chronicle, Inside Higher Ed, Academic Jobs Online and HigherEdJobs. US program funding facts are extracted from each program's official pages, with the source quotes kept as evidence. Scholarships mix a curated set with the Campus France catalog and a CC0 fellowship list. Professor search runs live on OpenAlex (CC0). We also join open government data: College Scorecard and NSF doctorate statistics (US public domain), UKRI Gateway to Research (Open Government Licence), CORDIS (CC BY 4.0) and a Wikidata institution crosswalk (CC0). We index metadata and link back; we never republish full postings.
How current is it?
The position catalog was last refreshed on . This is a catalog update, not confirmation that every opportunity is still open. Deadlines shown are the ones the source stated, and every card links to the original posting so you can confirm before applying.
Is my data private?
Saved applications and documents require your account to access. The advisor sends your CV and preferences to an external analysis service only when you start an analysis. Saving or starting an admitted analysis keeps one private CV in your account, replacing the previous file. You can download, reuse or delete it in the advisor; results are kept in your browser tab. See Privacy for browser storage, account data, visit metrics and processing limits.
How do application reminders work?
Select “Save program” on a program and choose the application round. In My applications, opt into emails 30, 14, 7, or 1 day before a listed deadline. A countdown requires a specific date and year; rolling, ambiguous, and yearless dates do not trigger emails. Always confirm the official closing time and eligibility. Mark a round Applied, remove it, or unsubscribe to stop reminders. These emails do not track university decisions or confirm that you have applied.
How does the nationality filter work?
Pick your citizenship on the scholarships page and awards split into three groups: open to your nationality, worldwide or unspecified, and not open to you (hidden but counted honestly). We do not treat nationality alone as a complete eligibility check. The award may also require a particular degree, language score, residence or experience.
Does a researcher listing mean they are accepting students?
No. Publications show research activity, not a confirmed faculty role or an offer to supervise. A reported appointment can be outdated. Check the researcher's current university page and any dated recruitment statement. When current evidence is missing, availability stays unconfirmed.
Why does professor search sometimes say it is rate-limited?
Professor search runs live on OpenAlex, which has a daily usage budget. Heavy use can exhaust it, in which case the page shows the retry information available. Some previous searches may still be available from cache during an outage.
Does it cost anything?
No. Searching, filtering, browsing and CV advice are free to use.
I found a wrong or expired listing. What now?
Always confirm on the official page linked from each card, since sources change between refreshes. Expired positions are hidden from the default list but can be shown with the toggle on the positions page.
