Call for Applications: PhD Positions at IMPRS-QST and Munich Quantum Valley

The International Max Planck Research School for Quantum Science and Technology (IMPRS-QST) and the Munich Quantum Valley (MQV) announce the open call for fully funded PhD fellowships for the Fall of 2024. Passionate and dedicated young professionals are invited to seize this career opportunity and join the Munich and Bavarian ecosystem for their PhD in quantum science and technology.

Fields or research covered by IMPRS-QST and MQV include atomic physics and quantum optics, solid-state physics and material science, quantum information theory, and quantum many-body systems. Interested students may apply to one or both programs.

IMPRS for Quantum Science & Technology

The IMPRS-QST, based in Munich, is a joint program of the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics, the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München and the Technical University of Munich. It offers a comprehensive graduate program with an array of basic and advanced courses. The program includes multiple scientific activities and soft skills training courses, tailored to the interests and needs of the students. The IMPRS-QST has an extensive cooperation and exchange with other graduate programs, building an international and interdisciplinary environment that fosters innovation and collaboration.

Munich Quantum Valley

The Munich Quantum Valley, on the other hand, is dedicated to advancing quantum science and quantum technologies in Bavaria, with a primary focus on developing competitive quantum computers and bringing quantum technology to industrial applications. MQV doctoral fellows selected through the open call will have the freedom to choose any research group involved in Quantum Science and Technology across Bavarian universities, ensuring a diverse and dynamic research experience. The doctoral fellows of Munich Quantum Valley have access to courses and events from other quantum programs and MQV-partners, including IMPRS-QST and MCQST programs in Munich.

Apply now!

Don’t miss the opportunity and apply to either IMPRS-QST, MQV, or both to become part of a community at the forefront of quantum science and technology. Application deadline: 15 January 2024.
