Doctoral Researchers

Currently, we have about 300 doctoral researchers (~50% female, >40% international) writing their dissertations at the UFZ, about 43% of them are international.
"Do-it" are the PhD representatives at UFZ - More information can be found on their website: see here


Doctoral researchers, as well as all other international staff of the UFZ from abroad get further information and assistance at the International Office of the UFZ.
