The Vienna Doctoral School in Chemistry (DoSChem) brings together talented young researchers from across the globe. We offer a top-tier research and training environment covering all major areas of chemistry. As Austria’s largest doctoral programme dedicated to chemistry, we bring together researchers from different fields to create an open and collaborative environment where doctoral candidates can exchange ideas, learn from one another, and develop as scientists.
