TU Berlin: "Berlin International Graduate School of Natural Sciences and Engineering"
BIG-NSE is an international Graduate School founded on May 29, 2007 at the Technische Universität Berlin (TUB).
The School is part of the Cluster “Unified Concepts in Catalysis” (UniCat – see www.unicat.tu-berlin.de) founded by the TUB and five other Institutions in the Berlin area within the framework of the “Excellence Initiative” of the German Government.
The high ranking research in catalysis covers a broad range of topics from natural sciences to engineering. The successful performance of this research programme, which is unique in Germany, requires highly qualified and motivated young researchers in the different projects.
With the founding of BIG-NSE, UniCat aims to recruit the most gifted students and young researchers in the world and offer them a broad high level structured educational programme in order to prepare them for the high ranking research performed at the cluster.
In the coming weeks, this website will be developped and the conditions for admission into the school and much more details will be precised. Thus, do not hesitate to visit us regularly. We would be happy to recruit you as one of the first "Stipendiat" of the school, probably in November 2007, when the first stipends will be attributed.
