Young researchers actively explore their career options, learn career development methods, build a network, and improve their networking strategies.
This is made possible through: specific trainings, workshops & lectures. We offer everyone a framework for a fruitful mentoring partnership.

In this seminar, we will discuss current and cornerstone publications on NMR applications in the environmental and natural products sciences. Each week, one of the participants will shortly summarize a paper in a 15-minutes presentation, followed by an in-depth discussion guided by the lecturer. Prerequisites: basic knowledge in organic chemistry.

In the scope of this short introductory course, we will review the basics of radiochemistry, explore the utility of the U-Th series radionuclides in geochronology and flux calcuations, and establish an overview about analytical approaches and environmental applications. The course will include a field trip to Spiekeroog Island, where samples will be collected and analyzed later at ICBM in Oldenburg.
Environmental Sciences and Biodiversity
PhD study programme 'Environmental Sciences and Biodiversity'
Profile of the PhD programme
To get a general idea of the PhD Study Programme 'Environmental Sciences and Biodiversity' take a look at the overview.
Current programme
We offer a three year PhD with courses in three different modules:
- Specialised scientific knowledge (eng./germ.)
- Communicative competences (eng./germ.)
- Systemic competences and soft skills (eng./germ.)
The core of the programme is an independent doctoral research project in one of the participating research groups.
In addition to their scientific research, students have to take courses in three main areas (30-60 credit points):
Specialised scientific knowledge
In these courses students broaden and deepen their scientific knowledge in the context of their field of research and acquire the necessary skills to perform their laboratory work. Students take an active part in colloquia, congresses, summer schools and lab visits abroad (at least 12 credit points).
Communicative competence
Students are trained in communication and presentation techniques and improve their expertise in knowledge transfer (at least 6 credit points).
Interdisciplinary competences and soft skills
Students can develop strategies and expertise for their scientific career. The main issues are data management (statistics), project management, scientific writing, publishing own research results, writing proposals for grants and funds, and training for job application (at least 6 credit points).
Research
Further information on the scientific work and research you find on the homepages of Institute for Chemistry and Biology of the marine Environment (ICBM) and the Department of Biology and Environmental Sciences (IBU).
