Munich Aerospace PhD Scholarships 2023

Program Description:

The Munich Aerospace e.V. Bavarian Research Network was initiated in 2010 to combine key expertise in the field of aerospace and to act as a center of research, development, and training.

The Munich Aerospace unites 4 entities under one institutional roof: the TUM (Technical University Munich), the UniBwM (University of the German Armed Forces Munich), the DLR (German Aerospace Center) with its Oberpfaffenhofen institutes, and the BHL, the Bauhaus Luftfahrt. This pooling of research, graduate programs, and teaching merges regional excellence with the aim to trigger synergies.
