The Graduate School Life Science Munich (LSM) offers an international doctoral programme to highly motivated and academically qualified next generation researchers at one of Europe’s top Universities. LSM members are internationally recognized for their innovative research approaches and technologies, they are aiming to answer essential questions relevant to basic and applied biological and biochemical research. Within their own research group or in collaboration with a specialized research group on campus, LSM doctorates are given the opportunity to learn and command a variety of techniques. Furthermore, the graduate programme holds various workshops and seminars that strengthen and prepare doctorates for a successful career as scientists.
With over 40 research groups from the Faculty of Biology and the Faculty of Chemistry and Pharmacy of Ludwig Maximilian University (LMU) München, the LSM is located in the Biocenter. Its prominent location within the HighTechCampus in Martinsried south of Munich, contributes to the enormous possibilities for support, interdisciplinarity and constant scientific input from the surrounding laboratories. Available research projects cover areas from Biochemistry, Bioinformatics, Cell and Developmental Biology, Epigenetics, Genetics, Human Biology and Bioimaging, Pharmacology, and Plant Biology.
All courses, lectures and seminars at the LSM are held in English. Thus, selected candidates have to be fluent in both written and spoken English.
Successful students of the graduate school will be awarded a doctoral degree (Dr. rer. nat.) by the LMU after 3 to 4 years. Candidates need to prove a strong qualitative background as well as interest and ability to conduct independent research.
The doctoral programme is open for students who hold either a master´s or diploma degree, as well as to exceptional candidates with a four years bachelor degree (with written thesis).
LSM calls for doctoral applications on a yearly basis, currently open from the 14th of October until the 29th of November 2019.
