About this position

German-French Graduate College in Statistical Physics of Complex Systems in Equilibrium and Non-Equilibrium is a doctoral programme at Leipzig University for research training in statistical physics and related areas of complex systems.

The graduate college combines analytical theory from Université de Lorraine in Nancy with long-standing computer simulation expertise at Leipzig, creating a joint research environment focused on advanced doctoral education. Students work across a broad set of topics in the statistical physics of complex systems, including disorder effects on phase transitions, long-range interacting systems, topological excitations, conformational statistics of macromolecules, active polymeric systems, non-equilibrium relaxation, ice and water models, and quantum phase transitions.

The programme emphasises close collaboration between PhD researchers in Leipzig and Nancy, with extended research visits, a joint online seminar programme, and joint supervision leading to a co-tutelle de thèse and final degrees awarded by both universities. The description also notes possible links with Coventry University in the UK and the Institute for Condensed Matter Physics of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine in Lviv, broadening the international research context.

Research training is structured and discussion-based, with support from the Graduate Academy Leipzig and services for international doctoral candidates. The programme is taught in English, while students may write their thesis in English or German, and it is designed as a full-time hybrid doctoral programme over six semesters.

Funding details

No tuition fees are stated; binational grants, CNRS support, DAAD support, and Alexander von Humboldt Foundation support are mentioned as possible funding background, but no specific stipend or tuition funding amount is given.
