Financial and other support for IMPRS students

A few doctoral positions are available. Ph.D. students receive a Ph.D. support contract of the Max Planck Society for three
years, based on the German TVöD 13 scale (75%). Extension to a 4th year is possible.

The Max Planck Institute will assist in finding housing (housing[at]mpim-bonn[dot]mpg[dot]de). All information about Visa/Residence permit Ph.D. students will obtain by the administration (personnel[at]mpim-bonn[dot]mpg[dot]de).

For a sketch of the approximate living expenses, have a look at some information provided by BIGS.

The IMPRS provides support for students to visit specialists in their fields at German or other European institutions with whom the IMPRS is connected.
There is also a limited budget for participation in conferences or workshops at these partner institutions, or for short invitations of specialists from these institutions to Bonn.
