The program is research oriented: apart from attending specialized courses, our students usually start their research work by the end of the first year. Thus by the end of the program they already obtain results which are published (or accepted for publication) in internationally renowned journals. At the end of each year the students report about their research progress. At the end of the second year of studies the students must pass a comprehensive examination.
Career opportunities
While many of our former students obtain postdoctoral positions throughout the world, a large number of them get tenure or tenure track positions at universities or research institutes. Some of our students will pursue their research career in the non-academic environment of large international research institutions, tied to high-tech development or to the economic or financial world.
