PhD positions: Experimental and Theoretical Particle Physics 1995 views

The International Max Planck Research School on Elementary Particle Physics (IMPRS EPP) invites applications for PhD positions in experimental and theoretical particle physics.

About the school:

• The International Max Planck Research School “Elementary Particle Physics – Theoretical, Experimental and Cosmological Frontiers” is a joint initiative of the Max Planck Institute for Physics (Werner Heisenberg Institute) and the particle and astroparticle physics groups of the Ludwig Maximilians University Munich and the Technical University Munich.
• Research fields covered by the school from both an experimental and a theoretical perspective include high energy particle physics, astroparticle physics, and cosmology.
• The students’ own research is supplemented by an accompanying lecture program.
• Regular seminars, workshops, and other joint events serve to broaden the intellectual horizon, stimulate interaction between IMPRS members, and provide valuable background knowledge on topics beyond the students’ own research project.

Requirements:

• Applicant must have completed master’s study in Physics with outstanding results
• Applicant must provide written master’s thesis as documentation of a research project lasting at least six months
• Applicant must possess very good proficiency in English.

How to apply:

• Application must include: CV, academic records, master’s thesis (in German or English), or a (preliminary) summary and abstract of this work, two letters of recommendation,
