<p>Hello, <br>
</p>
<p>The Helmholtz Center for Environmental Research UFZ , Leipzig,
Germany, offers <b>four PhD positions</b> in the framework of the
<b>PhD college </b><b>“Fostering pollutant-sink functions of
blue-green infrastructures: towards local urban water cycles in
climate-resilient cities - CLEANER” </b>
within the Thematic Area Environmental Engineering and
Biotechnology. The aim of CLEANER is to identify the control
options for biodegradation of urban pollutants in two blue-green
infrastructures - tree trenches and root wetlands - and develop
technical solutions based on the joint research within the PhD
college (see <a href="http://www.ufz.de/cleaner">www.ufz.de/cleaner</a>
for more information).</p>
<p>Benefits for you include: <br>
</p>
<ul>
<li>Excellent technical facilities which are without parallel</li>
<li>The freedom you need to bridge the difficult gap between basic
research and close to being ready for application</li>
<li>Work in inter-disciplinary, multinational teams</li>
<li>Excellent links with national and international research
networks</li>
<li>Excellent support and optimal subject-specific and general
training with our HIGRADE graduate school</li>
</ul>
<p>The four offered PhD thesis are: <br>
