The Doctoral Programme ‘Climate Change – Uncertainties, Thresholds and Coping Strategies’ was approved by the Austrian Science Foundation (FWF)!
Funded largely by the Austrian Science Foundation, the DK is a multi-year interdisciplinary doctoral college (potentially up to 12 years, with 3 batches of candidates), and will begin operations in October 2014. As a result, there are exciting employment opportunities for outstanding PhD students. There is also one post at the postdoctoral level.
The call for applications and information on how to apply can be found here: https://dk-climate-change.uni-graz.at/en/call-for-applications/
There are sixteen fully-funded PhD student positions, with contracts starting as of October 2014 for three years (extendable by half a year in exceptional cases). The working language of the DK is English and no German is required to begin the programme. The positions come with social insurance, and the DK also provides funds to the PhD students for conference participation, visits, and research stays abroad.
