The Institute of Science and Technology Austria (IST Austria) is inviting highly qualified bachelor’s or master’s students to apply for the ISTScholar PhD program. We offer fully-funded PhD positions in
mathematics, physics, computer science, data science, biology, and
neuroscience in a world-class research environment on the outskirts of
Vienna. The list of specific research topics can be found at the end of
this email.
We would appreciate it if you could forward the information contained in this email to interested students. The application deadline is January 8th 2017 (http://phd.ist.ac.at), and we are hosting a Student Open Day next Friday, November 25th (register at: http://ist.ac.at/studentopenday).
Thank you for your help,
Yours sincerely,
Hania Köver, Ph.D.
