Do you have a Master’s degree and are looking for fully funded PhD opportunities? Max Planck Gesellschaft, Munich, Germany is now accepting applications for several funded PhD programs across a range of research areas.
1. Fully Funded PhD in Software Security
Summary of Funded PhD Program
In the Research Group for Software Security, we are now looking for a PhD candidate (m/f/d) to participate in the 5-year project, AT SCALE, to develop groundbreaking techniques to analyse and improve the security of software systems at scale. The aim of Project AT SCALE is to address a fundamental societal challenge of our time: Securing our systems to be robust to hacker attacks. Our project will address issues of scale and reliability that have plagued existing techniques by developing new, scale-oblivious empirical techniques for security analysis.

2. Fully Funded PhD in Analysis of Catalytic or Enzymatic Valorization for Algae Biomass
Summary of Funded PhD Program
The advertised position is embedded in the research field ProPhoS (Biochemical Production Systems using Photosynthetic Organisms). The research topic contributes to the circular economy concept by valorizing low-valued biomass. The overall objective is to advance the scientific fundamentals of algal biomass valorization for chemical production. In particular, the project aims to investigate and optimize progress in thermochemical, catalytic, or enzymatic processes to convert algal carbohydrates and proteins to chemical intermediates.
Application Deadline: Open until filled
