Unsolicited applications

An unsolicited application can give you the chance to make your mark on new materials technology topics, to shape progress and complement our range of competencies. Our high research standards have to be met by all our employees. When you apply for an undergraduate project or doctoral position, we expect you to have a strong background in materials science. Good references are equally important. Feel free to introduce yourself, in writing, and convince us that we can count on you.
