3. Fully Funded PhD Position in Agricultural Landscapes
Summary of PhD Program:
Biodiversity crisis as topic of the doctoral college: How can a trend reversal for the progressive loss of biodiversity in agricultural landscapes be achieved? This is the central question of the interdisciplinary doctoral program “Levers for a transformation of agricultural landscapes: from biodiversity loss to biodiversity increase” (HABIT). The college comprises twelve doctoral projects that are embedded in a socio-ecological system perspective and approaches to transformation research. The spectrum of topics ranges from ecological and agronomic questions to socio-economic analyzes to the agricultural policy level, including the behavior of consumers. With an empirical focus on Baden-Württemberg, internationally transferable insights should be gained,

4. Fully Funded PhD Position in Digitization of the working world
Summary of PhD Program:
Prof. Dr. Henner Gimpel works in research, teaching and practice on the analysis and design of digitization. He deals with socio-technical information systems in which people, information and digital technologies interact with each other. The goals here are on the one hand the humane, ecologically sustainable and economically target-oriented development and use of information systems and on the other hand the analysis of individual acceptance and handling of digital technologies in the financial sector, health care or high-tech industry. The focus is often on the individual person in their roles as consumer, customer, patient, employee and/or user who interacts with information systems.

7. Fully Funded PhD Position in aroma chemistry
Summary of PhD Program:
For our new research project “Aroma decoding of vegan cheese alternatives and their aroma improvement through processing” we are looking for qualified support as part of a doctoral position for an expected period of 3 years. The research work could start in May 2023, but no later than October 2023. The aim of the project is the comprehensive analysis of the formation and change of flavorings during the processing of vegan cheese alternatives into cheese through advanced instrumental analysis and sensory evaluation. The knowledge gained about the mechanism of cheese aroma formation at the molecular and enzymatic level will form the basis for further improving the quality of the new products in combination with suitable ingredients and processing methods.

8. Fully Funded PhD Position in Migration Governance
Summary of PhD Program:
Good administration is the basic requirement for the functioning of a state. The rule of law, progress and social balance stand and fall with the quality of their actions. Good administration ensures services of general interest. The trust of citizens in state institutions therefore depends on good administration. Nevertheless, many questions about the functioning of authorities and the effects of their actions have not yet been answered in research, which is not least due to the lack of empirical research. The cooperative doctoral college has therefore set itself the goal of firstly examining the individual components of good administration in an interdisciplinary manner and secondly, researching the reasons for good administrative action and the possibilities of influencing it.

11. Fully Funded PhD Position in Plant Ecology
Summary of PhD Program:
This post is a three-year PhD research position available from 01 September 2023 or later as part of the LegumeLegacy Doctoral Network. You will investigate the effect of varying diversity of six species (two grasses, two legumes, two herbs, selected for complementary functional traits) on above- and belowground biodiversity under heat stress, both in the grassland phase (direct effect), but also in the follow-on cereal crop (legacy effect). Additionally, the effect of the diversity of the grassland ley on the performance of the crop rotation will be evaluated by measurement of cereal yield and harvestable yield quality aspects. The title of this PhD project is: “Impacts of grassland diversity on cereal yield and yield quality under climate change”.
