Doctoral Positions available at the Graduate School Life Science Munich

The Graduate School Life Science Munich (LSM) offers an international doctoral programme to motivated and academically qualified next generation researchers at one of Europe’s top Universities. 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 in 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. 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 many opportunities 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, as well as for non-academic routes. 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 candidates! Available research projects cover areas from Biochemistry, Cell and Developmental Biology, Climate Change, Ecology, Evolutionary Biology, Genetics, Microbiology, Pharmacology, and Plant Sciences. Applicants are selected in a multi-step process through our online portal, currently open until November 29th, 2017, thus ensuring openness and fairness throughout the application procedure. Every complete submission is processed and evaluated by the LSM coordinator. These are then independently reviewed by several faculty members of the LSM Graduate School. Based on academic qualification, research experience, motivation, scientific background and the letters of recommendation, candidates will be selected to participate in the LSM Interview week. After thorough evaluation through the LSM committee members, successful candidates will be invited to join the LSM Graduate School.
