Several PhD students are currently working at the Marine Biology department. Their studies are either scholarships or financed through funded research projects. The department itself has not the possibility to grant PhD positions. Hence, third-party finances are mandatory. However, visiting scientists are welcome to join the department in order to carry-out parts of their PhD work in our labs.
This page will present new PhD topics, if available.
Detailed information about studying in Rostock can be found at the student affairs office of the Biosciences
