About this position
The International Max Planck Research School for Quantitative Behaviour, Ecology and Evolution (IMPRS-QBEE) is a structured PhD programme designed for outstanding doctoral candidates from around the world. Hosted in cooperation with the Department of Biology at the University of Konstanz and the Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior, the programme is based in Radolfzell am Bodensee, Germany. IMPRS-QBEE offers a stimulating and competitive environment for research in animal behaviour, ecology, evolution, physiology, and neurobiology. The programme is conducted entirely in English, and while German is not required, students are encouraged to learn the language to enhance their integration into the local community and culture. The doctoral programme is full-time, typically lasting six semesters, and students can begin at any time, with the latest starting date being 1 October. There are no tuition fees, but students must pay a semester contribution of approximately 176 EUR. The programme does not offer specific funding or stipends, and funding opportunities within the university are not available. Applicants must have at least a Master's or equivalent degree, though exceptional candidates with a four-year Bachelor's degree (with written thesis) in a related subject may also be considered. Proof of English proficiency is required for non-native speakers. The IMPRS-QBEE provides a structured research and supervision environment, with opportunities for international collaboration, teaching, and career advisory services offered by both the Max Planck Institute and the University of Konstanz. Support services for international students include a welcome event, buddy programme, specialist counselling, and assistance with visa matters. The application process is online, and candidates are encouraged to prepare their academic documents and proof of English proficiency before applying. For more information and to apply, visit the IMPRS-QBEE website.
