Environmental informatics is understood to be an integrated subject consisting of bio-, eco- and geoinformatics in addition to scientific computing. By using the tools of informatics in this subject, anyone can study or model objects, structures, regulatory networks, processes (signals, materials and information flows) at various scales and integration levels. Under the umbrella of environmental informatics, the transfer of knowledge about biological, ecological and environmental systems and the system-oriented integration of these will be improved and promoted using modern methods and technology. This important integrative approach at the system level is effective due to the efficient academic and education-related measures set up with the establishment of the M.Sc. and Ph.D. programmes in environmental informatics and their embedding in the graduate school GAUSS and in the research landscape of Göttingen. The excellent biological, ecosystemic, environmental and mathematical research in Göttingen is reflected in this Ph.D. programme.
Organisation of studies depends on the chosen sub-programme (bioinformatics, ecoinformatics, geoinformatics or scientific computing) and is rather flexible. Please contact your preferred supervisor from one of these sub-programmes for further information.
You are normally required to take an English Proficiency Test.
