EMBL in general
and its EMBL International PhD Programme in particular
strive to contribute to the European academic
landscape. We want to help break boundaries and
make bonds between national education systems.
We aim to meet the highest standards for the education
and training of PhD students in the molecular
life sciences in Europe and the world, and
seek innovative solutions to current bottlenecks.
In this mission, the EMBL International PhD Programme
sees itself as a strong and loyal partner of the
universities in its member states, which share
this vision.
Our PhD students are here as ambassadors of their home universities, and
they are ambassadors of the EMBL in their home countries. Many of them wish
that their PhD degrees reflect this dual affiliation. Based on EMBL's
authority to grant PhD degrees and in response to our students' interest, we have initiated a Partnership Programme with some of the most highly
respected universities in the different European countries. An important
aspect of this partnership is that EMBL's PhD students can obtain 'Joint
PhD degrees' from us together with our partners.
A longer term ambition is that the partnerships, which are currently
bilateral between EMBL and specific universities, will grow into a network
for the optimal recruitment, training and career support of its PhD
students.
We are happy that the universities listed below have already become EMBL's
Partner Universities, and look forward to the joining of more universities
in the near future. We are also open to suggestions from universities who
share our goals and vision.
Currently, the EMBL has established partnerships for a joint PhD degree with the following universities: |
