The International Max Planck Research School for Advanced Methods in Process and Systems Engineering (IMPRS ProEng)

The International Max Planck Research School for Advanced Methods in Process and Systems Engineering in Magdeburg was founded in 2007 and is a joint initiative of the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics of Complex Technical Systems and the Otto von Guericke University. Its main goal is to provide high-level scientific training and support PhD projects through an innovative concept which combines cutting-edge mathematical and systems-oriented engineering research. We are driven by challenging questions arising from the analysis, design and optimization of chemical and biochemical processes.

Our graduate school offers a structured PhD program with close supervision and broad scientific, professional and social networks. A diverse curriculum composed of both scientific and soft skills qualifies our students to join the next generation of leading scientists and professionals.
