A demonstrated interest in the topics of the chair is required. Very good writing and quantitative skills are essential. Fluency in English is required.
The appointment includes the writing of a dissertation in the candidate’s field of interest, under the supervision of Professor Sebastian Rausch and other members of the chair, and providing support for research projects. An integral part of your work is publishing your results in peer-reviewed journals and representing the chair at international conferences. The PhD thesis is to be completed within three to four years.
