Applications to the IMPRS-LM PhD program are possible only via our ONLINE PORTAL.
The entire process, from opening of our application portal to the onsite interviews, unfolds over a four-month duration.
Applicants are initially granted a window of 6-8 weeks to register on our portal and complete their application.
Subsequently, our coordination office and the recruiting faculty will evaluate and select the top applicants that will be invited for a first interview online.
The online interviews will consist of two short online interactions: a panel interview & a scientific presentation.
Successful candidates will then be invited to an onsite visit 8 weeks later to meet the recruiting labs and find the best matching projects.
For more information, check the application FAQs or contact us.
