If you have already earned a PhD in a field that aligns with the research focus of the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Energy Conversion (MPI CEC) and are seeking to further develop your scientific profile, the institute offers an excellent environment for the next stage of your academic career.
As a postdoctoral researcher at MPI CEC, you will work in an international and highly collaborative research setting with access to state-of-the-art infrastructure. Postdocs receive individual scientific support and mentoring from group leaders and directors, enabling them to deepen their expertise, develop independent research ideas, and prepare for their next career steps both within and beyond academia.
The MPI CEC is part of the Max Planck Society, which provides a broad range of career development opportunities for postdoctoral researchers. These include structured training and qualification programs, networking opportunities across institutes, and dedicated support measures aimed at fostering scientific independence and career progression.
Postdoctoral positions at the MPI CEC can be obtained either through advertised vacancies or via unsolicited applications directly to the research departments.
