Interested in joining a future RTG cohort?

Our first cohort of RTG-funded doctoral researchers has already been recruited, and there are currently no open RTG-funded PhD positions.

If you are currently pursuing your Bachelor's or Master's degree and are interested in quantum photonics, we invite you to explore our research projects and participating research groups. Further RTG-funded PhD positions are expected to become available with the recruitment of our next cohort in 2028.

Looking for a PhD position now?

Even though there are currently no open RTG-funded positions, the research groups participating in RTG 3158 may offer additional PhD opportunities in quantum photonics and related fields.

If our research matches your interests, we encourage you to explore the participating research groups and contact potential supervisors directly. Depending on the research topic and individual circumstances, doctoral researchers funded outside the RTG may also have the opportunity to join RTG 3158 as associated doctoral researchers.

Already pursuing a PhD at Leibniz University Hannover?

Doctoral researchers at Leibniz University Hannover working on topics related to the research areas of RTG 3158 may apply to join the RTG as associated doctoral researchers.

Associated doctoral researchers become part of the RTG community and can participate in our scientific and qualification programme, providing opportunities for interdisciplinary exchange, networking, and professional development.

If you are interested in becoming an associated doctoral researcher, please contact us to discuss whether your research project fits the scope of RTG 3158.
