Standard lab working hours are 9:30 AM to 5:30 PM, Monday through Friday, with access to high-performance computing GPU infrastructure.

The engagement is purely contractual and project-based for 12 months or co-terminus with the project, whichever is earlier. Extension is contingent upon candidate performance, fund availability, and PI/DTU approval. The engagement confers no entitlement to regular appointment at DTU.
