At Novozymes, we constantly seek out new opportunities for how we can create not just a better tomorrow, but also a better workplace and a better business. We want to change the world together with our customers and we want to connect with the thinkers of tomorrow to make that happen. If you share our vision and want to build a relationship with us, please tell us about your idea for your thesis and perhaps you get elected to be a part of the team of students writing their thesis with us.
If you get elected to be part of the process you will gain:
- A permanent sparring partner with insight in your focus area. You will meet with this person a least three times while writing your thesis
- Access to relevant data
- Insight into the challenges of a global company
- The possibility of writing your thesis with a mix of theory and practical insight
- Be a part of a structured procedure in which Novozymes’ HR department will help you prepare for your future career by e.g. train you for going to job interviews
- Network with students from other schools
- There is a price of 10,000 DKK for the best thesis
Who can write their thesis with us?
All students at Danish universities and business schools who are writing their thesis from January 2013 can write their thesis with Novozymes.
Our requirements are:
- that the thesis is value adding to us
- that you present your idea in maximum 2500 characters (including spaces)
- that your thesis is written in either Danish or English – please write your application in the same language as your thesis
Other than that, Novozymes is an open-minded company ready for all new ideas. So just be creative and send us your idea!
Win 10,000 DKK
In September, when the theses are handed in, we will evaluate them and present 10,000 DKK to the best thesis writer. We will evaluate the thesis independently from the academic evaluation. Instead, we focus on your ability to suggest solutions that can create value to Novozymes.
Application procedure
Please note that it is no longer possible to apply for writing your thesis with us in 2012. We are open for applications again in the fall 2012 for students writing their thesis with us in 2013.
Please note that if you are offered to write your thesis with us, you will get access to confidential data at Novozymes, and you thus have to sign a confidentiality agreement which limits your possibilities to publish the results from your thesis.
