ELIGIBILITY:

The scholarships support the academic qualification in the framework of relevant master’s programmes of Universität Hamburg, i.e. physics, nanoscience and chemistry.

(Planned) Enrollment for a master’s degree at Universität Hamburg in physics, nanoscience or chemistry. If you are not enrolled yet, you can still apply and the scholarship can be granted given your successful enrollment in the next semester.

 Enthusiasm for the research topics of the Cluster of Excellence and good grades in a Bachelor’s degree programme in physics, chemistry, biochemistry or a related subject are prerequisites.

Scholarship holders are required to complete the relevant master study curricula, but also have the opportunity to engage in optional research projects as part of the Cluster of Excellence “CUI: Advanced Imaging of Matter”. The Cluster offers students an exciting insight into research groups, the research programme and the infrastructure at the Bahrenfeld campus. Scientific topics for projects include photon science, quantum physics, theoretical physics, nanostructure and solid-state physics, physical chemistry, biochemistry, femtosecond and attosecond laser spectroscopy, X-ray physics at FreeElectron Lasers, coherent X-ray imaging, ultrafast science, atomic, molecular and optical physics, quantum gases, nanochemistry as well as machine learning.
