[ES_JOBS_NET] PhD Positions at the Vienna International School of Earth and Space Sciences

[Heidi Weinhäupl]

Dear colleagues,

The "Vienna International School of Earth and Space Sciences" (VISESS) is soliciting applications for PhD positions within the Faculty of Earth Sciences, Geography and Astronomy at the University of Vienna. The school is announcing more than 30 PhD projects in the three branches "Cosmos", "Earth" and "Anthroposphere" (see: https://visess.univie.ac.at/how-to-apply/phd-projects/).

As humanity is facing grand challenges such as climate change and resource depletion, this new doctoral school at the University of Vienna is addressing these and other challenges through interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary academic research connecting the COSMOS with planet EARTH, it's environment and the ANTHROPOSPHERE. We aim our students to become world-leading experts in either of these three branches while also confidently communicate and contribute across all three branches. We want our school to become a central place in the heart of Europe for training and as a resource of knowledge about our place in space and time. For further information see: https://visess.univie.ac.at

Interested students can apply until the deadline of 15 November 2020 via: https://visess.univie.ac.at/how-to-apply/

We would very much appreciate if you could distribute the above information among your students as well as print and display our VISESS poster: https://visess.univie.ac.at/fileadmin/user_upload/p_visess/pdfs/VISESS-Poster_A2_High_resolution.pdf


With best wishes,

Franz Kerschbaum (VISESS director)
Glenn van de Ven (Cosmos branch)
Daniel Le Heron (Earth branch)
Michaela Trippl (Anthroposphere branch)
