Within BIOINTERFACE – a newly created doctoral training program at TU Wien, Austria – ten PhD
positions are available. BIOINTERFACE is a highly interdisciplinary doctoral training porogram, which
aims at exploring the interface between inorganic and bio-organic systems towards applications in bionanotechnology.
Short descriptions of the ten PhD projects are available at the BIOINTERFACE webpage
under the following link:
http://biointerface.tuwien.ac.at/doctoral-training-program/phd-projects/
What we offer:
Ten three-year PhD positions, starting between October 1st 2016 and March 31st 2017, in
the fields of chemical synthesis, experimental (bio-)physics/engineering as well as biomechanics, and
theory/simulation. The positions are equivalent to a part-time university assistant (25 hours) position
(minimum salary is EUR 1.685,30- pre-tax, 14x per year). The salary can be raised according to previous
experience in the field. BIOINTERFACE provides highly interdisciplinary research projects and a cuttingedge
training program including monthly seminars, lab rotation, retreats, a stay abroad, and – if applicable
– industrial cooperation.
Application Requirements:
A Diploma/Masters/Magister university degree in chemistry, (bio-)physics, civil engineering,
mathematics, biology, electrical engineering, process engineering, biomedical
engineering, materials science, mechanical engineering, or a related discipline is a
prerequisite for becoming a BIOINTERFACE PhD student. Additional knowledge related to the specific
projects is desirable.
How to apply:
Applications should be submitted in German or English language via email to:
pi.biointerface@tuwien.ac.at . Please send a single pdf-file, named “givenname_surname.pdf” The
deadline for application is: September 30 2016 .
Applications must include:
choice from the list of projects at http://biointerface.tuwien.ac.at/doctoral-training-program/phdprojects/ )
and a motivation for your choice.
