PhD positions in Quantum Materials research
We seek to recruit PhD students to a range of inter‐institutional research projects in the broadly defined field of quantum materials. Research work will be combined with graduate courses and general skills training. Both experimental and theoretical projects are offered and a complete list of all projects is available .
Applicants are expected to have an outstanding Bachelor or Master degree in a field of study which is well-aligned with our research activities. Excellent candidates from any country are encouraged to apply.
Our program will provide successful candidates with a stimulating environment, in which they will have the opportunity to interact and work with world-leading scientists from the three sites and use our excellent infrastructure and facilities. Our research is generously funded and successful candidates will receive competitive payment based on the primary location of their research project.
The IMPRS-CPQM places great importance on fostering a pleasant working atmosphere and encouraging friendly cooperation. We are committed to increasing the proportion of women in areas where they are underrepresented. We have also set ourselves the goal of employing more people with severe disabilities.
We are looking forward to receiving your application.
The is a joint PhD program of the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids in Dresden, Germany, the Technische Universität Dresden, and the University of St Andrews, Scotland. We offer a highly attractive overall package of PhD level research on solid-state chemistry and condensed matter physics, building on world‐class research activities in quantum materials at the three institutions.
