The International Max Planck Research School for Ultrafast Imaging & Structural Dynamics (IMPRS-UFAST) is now accepting applications for PhD Fellowships. Fellows must commit to a pursuing a research programme in Ultrafast Physics and Chemistry.
The Max Planck Society is committed to employing more handicapped individuals and especially encourages them to apply. Furthermore, the Max Planck Society seeks to increase the number of women in those areas where they are underrepresented and therefore explicitly encourages women to apply
The International Max Planck Research School for Ultrafast Imaging & Structural Dynamics (IMPRS-UFAST) is a joint venture of the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter, Deutsches Elektronen Synchrotron (DESY), the Universität Hamburg and the European XFEL GmbH
An English language test (TOEFL, IELTS) is normally required for the purpose of application. This is to ensure that students will be able to successfully conduct their PhD studies. If applicant can convincingly demonstrate that they are fluent in spoken and written English, this requirement may be waived.
