The International Leibniz Graduate School Systems Biology Lab on a Chip admits five students once a year. The call for applications for the program starting at September 1, 2011 will be released here in October 2010.

The program is open to qualified young science and engineering graduates. Applicants must hold a Masters, Diploma or equivalent degree in sciences or engineering with excellent student records. The degree should include an experimental research experience of at least four months. Applications are welcome even if the required degree has not been awarded by the time of the application. It only has to be conferred before entering the program.

A foreign diploma or degree conferred may not always be recognized as equivalent to its German pendant. Admission to doctorate studies in Germany with a foreign degree requires that the foreign degree qualifies the holder for direct admission to doctorate studies in the country where the degree was obtained.
