Germany: PhD program Infection Biology - Medizinische Hochschule Hannover

Overview

Starting Fall 2003, the international PhD Program Infection Biology was launched. The 3-year program, with English as the teaching language, plays a pivotal role in the training of young scientists in the field of infection biology. The program's objective is to investigate the complex interactions between host and pathogen as well as basic research with the combined tools of immunology, cell biology and molecular biology.

20 students from across the world are accepted each year after a rigorous selection procedure. The study program is supported by the Wilhelm-Hirte Foundation, by scholarships provided by Hannover Medical School and through Georg-Christoph-Lichtenberg scholarships and administrative positions by the Ministry of Science and Culture of Lower Saxony. Since Fall 2004 the European Union participates in sponsoring PhD students via the elite program "Miditrain" which is funded by the EU "Marie Curie Actions" program.

60 students enrolled in the PhD Program work on a three-year research project and attend seminars, congresses, as well as lab courses. Students are encouraged and supported by a network of supervisors and support teams and finish the program after the PhD examination at the end of the third year as highly qualified scientists.


All students enroled in the PhD program Infection Biology automatically become part of two research schools: the Hannover Biomedical Research School (HBRS) and the Helmholtz International Research School for Infection Biology (HIRSIB).
