Doctoral Programme

The Europäische Akademie supports the doctoral studies of young scientists in the areas of engineering and the natural sciences, and biotechnology and medicine, which are related to Technology Assessment and ethics of sciences. The topic of dissertation is confined to one of the interdisciplinary project groups of the Europäische Akademie and supervised by a University Professor. Thus, young scientists receive the opportunity to work as part of an experienced project team and to gain access to international networks. Applications can be sent to the postal address of the Europäische Akademie.
