ESO Studentships

23 de Maio de 2013

The research studentship programme provides an outstanding opportunity for Ph.D. students to experience the exciting scientific environment, at one of the world's leading observatories, for a period of up to two years.

ESO's studentship positions are open to students enrolled in a university Ph.D. programme in astronomy or related fields. Students accepted into the programme work on their doctoral project under the formal supervision of their home university but, for a period of between one and two years, they come to ESO to work and study under the co-supervision of an ESO staff astronomer. Studentships may be hosted either at ESO Headquarters in Garching (Germany) or at ESO Offices in Santiago (Chile), where two positions per year are provided for students enrolled in South American universities. An article with more details about this scheme can be found in West et al. 2009.

The studentship selection takes place on an annual basis. The closing date for applications this year is 15 June 2013.

More details are available here. For information about the application procedure and the required material, please see the ESO recruitment portal.
