A list of all European universities can be obtained from
several sources, in particular from:

A search using complexity as the keyword includes the following entries:

For further search new keywords need to be introduced for
selecting the relevant complexity PhD programs, projects and funding.
A search through scientometrics
website using the keyword complexity
leads to these sites:

A search using the keywords PhD complexity leads to these sites:

á
http://www.bioinformatica.unito.it/phD.complexity/

which is a rather limited list.
Another approach can be suggested through the website
which claims to be the one to be looked for for finding a
given postgraduate research degree. A search using the key word complexity gives the following numbers of PhD programs in the
two categories Science and Engineering and Arts, Humanities & Social sciences:
|
University of Bristol |
|
The Bristol Centre for Complexity Sciences (BCCS) is a
new, highly interdisciplinary centre for training and research funded by the
UK Engineering and Physical Science Research Council. We are looking for
enthusiastic and motivated students who want to take up the many challenges
and open problems in Complexity Sciences. You will study and work in a
multidisciplinary environment. |

|
|
University of Warwick |
|
We are training a new generation
of complexity scientists at PhD level, teaching knowledge and skills to
understand, control and design complex systems, and to do innovative research
in complexity science via critical thinking, interdisciplinary teamwork and
end-user interaction. |

Max Planck Institute |
|
The International Max Planck
Research School for Computer Science (IMPRS-CS) is a graduate school jointly
run by the Max Planck Institute for Informatics (MPII), the Max Planck
Institute for Software Systems (MPI-SWS), and the Computer Science Department
at Saarland University. |
Whence specific programs can seem to be better gathered from
information obtained through various Fondations and National Research Committees,
recognizing the time limit and necessary evolution of the programs, the more so
in the Bologna agreement process. One finds the non-exhaustive following list,
some nations having no available information at the time of the gathering.
Nevertheless it is recommended to first select the location and research
project and establish thereafter a connection with the relevant administrative
authority or scientific leader at the given or selected University Research Centre.
