About this position

The Max Planck Graduate Center for Quantum Materials (MPGC-QM) is inviting applications for multiple fully funded PhD positions in the fast-moving field of quantum materials. This is a structured, English-speaking doctoral program bringing together leading research groups from several Max Planck Institutes in Germany, with a limited number of joint PhD projects in collaboration with Oxford University.

Successful candidates will join an interdisciplinary research environment with access to world-class facilities and challenging projects spanning quantum materials, condensed matter physics, solid-state science, spectroscopy, computational and theoretical methods, and related areas. The program is designed for highly motivated students interested in basic science and interdisciplinary collaboration across research groups and locations.

Funding is fully provided, with no tuition fees and additional support for scientific meetings and trainings. The program also emphasizes individual supervision and mentoring by internationally recognized scientists. For joint projects with Oxford University, students spend time both at Oxford and at one of the participating Max Planck Institutes and earn their PhD from Oxford University.

Eligibility is broad but academically strong: applicants should hold an MSc or equivalent degree in physics, chemistry, mathematics, or computer science, and should have some knowledge of solid-state science plus excellent English language skills. Outstanding candidates with a first-class four-year BSc or equivalent may apply via the fast-track option.

The application deadline is 2026-12-08, and applications must be submitted through the online portal. For further information, the program page and FAQ are available via the provided links, and enquiries can be directed to the MPGC Coordination Office at [email protected].
