PhD Scholarships IMPRS-SurMat

Scholarship Description

The International Max Planck Research School for Surface and Interface Engineering in Advanced Materials IMPRS-SurMat) represents a unique cooperative effort involving the Max Planck Institute for Iron Research (MPIE) in Duesseldorf, the Max Planck Institute for Coal Research in Muelheim, and the Ruhr University (RUB) in Bochum. In addition, three research departments from Xiamen University in China, the Department of Materials at the University of Science and Technology, Beijing, and Fudan University, Shanghai closely cooperate with SurMat. IMPRS-SurMat covers topics ranging from fundamental scientific issues to engineering applications. This includes topics such as material stability (corrosion and interfacial adhesion), local reactivities on heterogeneous surfaces (corrosion and heterogeneous catalysis), and the sophisticated tailoring of surfaces by thin film and nano-structuring techniques. Scholarship is closed. Next round will be advised in due course.
