PhD in Life Sciences

The Life Sciences fulfill a major role in the development of humanity in the 21st century. The challenges we face are becoming increasingly tougher – the questions are becoming broader while the answers need to be more focused.

 

  • How do we preserve ecological systems that are in danger of extinction?
  • How do we supply food and energy to the immense population of our planet?
  • How do we afford health and quality of life for those suffering from severe diseases and genetic defects?

Simultaneously, scientists are developing unique research instruments that are unimaginably sophisticated in order to cope with these threatening problems, which in the past were thought to be hopeless.

 

This is a battlefield that is fitting for young and enthusiastic people, who will acquire comprehensive and in-depth knowledge in the different and exciting branches of biology: biochemistry, biophysics, computational biology, molecular genetics, ecology, plant sciences, microbiology, immunology, neurobiology, biotechnology, nanotechnology, and more.

 

The mission of the Mina and Everard Goodman Faculty of Life Sciences is to impart biological knowledge and scientific education based on modern research.

 

In addition to imparting knowledge, we strive to arouse the curiosity of our students and to cultivate their intellectual and cultural growth. We help them advance their technical abilities in laboratory work and field research, hone their abilities to critically analyze scientific information, and enhance their problem-solving skills while strengthening their awareness of the preservation of the environment.

 

The Life Sciences Faculty offers an outstanding research and technology environment in English for PhD and Postdoc students.

 

We are seeking highly-motivated candidates of academic excellence to undertake leading research projects. International students are encouraged to apply and are warmly welcomed.

 

Full-time commitment to your research is essential. Study fees are therefore waived for PhD students, and scholarships (a monthly stipend) are available for highly-qualified candidates.

 

The Faculty’s staff includes more than 45 top researchers, who are experts in their fields. Each of them heads an active and lively research group, which includes colleagues, technicians, and graduate students.

 

The various fields in the Faculty of Life Sciences are divided into several major research categories:

Duration of Studies: 4 years
