Call for applications 2015
The Solar System School invites applications for PhD positions in Solar System Science. Review of applications will begin on 15 November 2015.
The Solar System School is open to students from all countries and offers an international three-year PhD program in an exceptional research environment with state-of-the-art facilities on the Göttingen Campus.
Successful applicants will be offered a three-year doctoral support contract as well as postdoc wrap-up funding.
The International Max Planck Research School for Solar System Science at the University of Göttingen (Solar System School) offers a research-oriented doctoral programme covering the physical aspects of Solar system science. It is jointly run by the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research (MPS) and the University of Göttingen.
Research at the MPS covers three main areas:
