Eight PhD positions are open in sustainable (bio)chemical engineering at TU Dortmund University through TALENT – RTG 3199 , a new DFG-funded Research Training Group . The research theme is the Tolerance–Efficiency Dilemma : how future chemical processes can handle variable bio-based raw materials and renewable energy while staying efficient, robust, and economically viable. One of the projects focuses on adaptive process control under uncertainty , making this a strong fit for candidates interested in process systems, control, sustainability, and modern chemical/biochemical engineering. This is a doctoral opportunity for motivated candidates who want to contribute to the future of sustainable chemical and biochemical engineering. The post does not list detailed eligibility criteria, but the emphasis is on research motivation and interest in the topic area. Funding: The positions are part of a funded research training group. No stipend amount or additional financial package is specified in the post. Application deadline: 23 July 2026. More information: www.rtg-talent.de
