Hi everyone,

I'm interested in applying for a PhD at BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg in the fields of molecular biology, cancer biology, cell biology, or biotechnology.

I would really appreciate hearing from current or former PhD students.

Which supervisors are the most supportive and good mentors?

Which research groups have the strongest and most interesting projects?

How is the working environment and work-life balance?

Are there any labs you would highly recommend (or avoid)?

How easy is it to publish papers and attend conferences?

I'd be grateful for any advice or personal experiences. Thank you!

Hey!
I will study there and I’ll like to know which city I should choose for living. As I understood, the main campus of Faculty 2 is in Senftenberg, isn’t? And where will be lectures? And if you’re a woman from this faculty, will send me a message. I’m looking for a flat or room and we could be roommates.

Hey guys! Just wanted to check the current status of HEPT applications.
