Graduate School "Advanced Materials": First admission of members

This April, the Graduate School "Advanced Materials" (GS-AM) admitted 22 doctoral students as members, from HU Berlin, FU Berlin, TU Berlin, and Potsdam Universität. The mission of GS-AM is to provide superior qualification for doctoral students across Berlin and Potsdam, in research on modern and emerging advanced materials for optics, electronics, and optoelectronics, as well as in transferable skills.

The spokesman of the graduate school, Professor Norbert Koch from the Department of Physics and IRIS Adlershof at HU explains: The research projects of our students are devoted to unraveling fundamental and applied aspects of 3D and 2D inorganic semiconductors, organic semiconductors, and their hybrids. During the current period of reduced access to the universities, GS-AM offers online-courses by professional trainers, on topics such as scientific writing/presentation, project management, and scientific leadership. We all hope that meeting in person will become possible eventually, but for the time being digital instruments are our key for interaction.

The next term of applications to GS-AM will be in the fall of 2020.
