Doctoral studies at the Chair of Philosophy of Science

If you are interested in doing a PhD on a topic relevant to the Chair, there are two possibilities:

  1. You can apply for an advertised PhD student position. These advertisements will appear on the Faculty's webpage.
  2. You already have funding or are planning to apply for a scholarship (e.g. from the Studienstiftung des deutschen Volkes). In that case, please send the following documents (in English) as one PDF file to the Chair's secretary: cover letter, CV, PhD project proposal (about 10 pages), Master thesis and an essay (e.g. a term paper, max. 8000 words). A separate letter of recommendation should also be sent to the same address. We will then look at your documents and get back to you.
