Information for future IMPRS students

Following your successful application, you will become a member of the IMPRS and receive a contract for three years. The IMPRS curriculum will complement the doctoral study. IMPRS doctoral candidates enroll at either Ludwig Maximilian University Munich (LMU) or the Technical University of Munich (TUM); you will receive your PhD degree from one of the two universities.

Doctoral candidates at TUM are required to serve as instructors for laboratory courses or exercises. At LMU, teaching activity is recommended. More information:
