	Provide funding yourself. Note that even if you provide funding yourself you still have to fulfill the formal requirements for Ph.D. studies at NTNU which put certain restrictions on the grades you have received during your master studies.

In addition to funding you need to demonstrate excellence in at least two of the following fields: wireless communications, information theory, statistical physics, or applied mathematics. If you are distracted by mathematics, please consider a different supervisor.

When applying for an open position at NTNU, please note that the selection process is highly competitive and the number of applications exceeds the number of available positions by a large margin. The minimum formal requirement to apply is an average grade of 5 on a scale from 1 to 6. However, the succesful candidates typically come with average grades above 5.5.
