Graduate School HIGRADE

Welcome to HIGRADE,


the graduate school of the Helmholtz Center for Environmental Research - UFZ!


If you are interested to become a member of HIGRADE, the first step is to apply for a PhD position at UFZ. Please, check the first link below for open positions.

In case you try to get an external scholarship or bring your own (e.g. by DAAD), you should search for a supervisor/research group at UFZ and contact the person directly (check the second link below). If you will be accepted, you are able to get a guest contract.

Once you have a supervisor and are an official doctoral candidate at UFZ, you will become member of the HIGRADE program.

Best wishes,

Dr. Vera Bissinger, HIGRADE coordinator
