PhD Students in Circular Economy and Climate Change Resilience
ETH | Department of Management, Technology, and Economics
申请截止时间: 30 June 2026
Project background
Position 1: ACHIEVE
The PhD is embedded in the SWEET ACHIEVE consortium project, which investigates how to tackle less-easy-to and hard-to-abate greenhouse gas emissions in Switzerland. Your research will focus on understanding the role of circular economy measures in reducing emissions across challenging sectors, including chemicals and pharmaceuticals, and waste treatment. Building on this, you will combine qualitative and quantitative methods to assess the implementation of circular economy measures from firm-level, policy, and value-chain perspectives, examining adoption pathways, policy requirements, and how these measures create new intersectoral linkages and reshape material flows.
Position 2: NCCR Clim+
The NCCR CLIM+ supports Switzerland in the transformation towards a climate-resilient society. Together with stakeholders, the interdisciplinary NCCR CLIM+ research community tackles unexplored solution spaces to the climate crisis and develops a blueprint for actionable climate research worldwide. NCCR CLIM+ broadly communicates and shares knowledge, and trains a new generation of experts with the necessary domain and transdisciplinary knowledge. Your research will focus on understanding how climate-induced disruptions, such as supply chain shocks, raw material shortages, or infrastructure failures, drive lasting structural changes in firms, industries, and policy. You will combine qualitative and quantitative methods to analyse historical and contemporary cases of industry restructuring in response to climate and environmental shocks, and develop forward-looking scenarios that equip businesses and policymakers with actionable strategies to navigate increasing climate variability and global interdependence.
Job description
For both positions:
We expect your research to be scientifically rigorous and relevant to policymakers and managers. You will collaborate closely with other researchers in our group, other research consortia members, as well as interact with policymakers and further stakeholders. As an integral part of your work, you will publish your results in high-impact peer-reviewed journals and outreach outlets. You will also supervise master students and support the group's teaching activities.
Profile
The ideal candidate should:
- Hold an M.Sc. or equivalent degree in economics, engineering, environmental sciences, or a closely related discipline
- Have an excellent academic record
- Have strong analytical skills, including experience with qualitative and quantitative research methods
- Be passionate about sustainability, circular economy, and climate resilience
- Be interested in the intersection of sustainability research and its real-world policy and business applications
- Be able to work independently, manage multiple tasks and deadlines
- Be a team player with strong communication skills
- Have experience with coding and modeling (e.g., with Python)
- Be fluent in spoken and written English
Not required, but a plus to:
- Have work experience in a related area
- Have prior scientific publications in a related area
- Have experience working in interdisciplinary projects or teams, including stakeholder engagement or science-policy interface work
- Have familiarity with Swiss or European industrial and environmental policy
Curious? So are we.
We look forward to receiving your online application with the following documents:
- Your CV, with contact details of two referees,
- A letter of motivation detailing your research interests and reasons for choosing one of the two PhD projects,
- Your BSc and MSc transcripts, and
- An example of your written work (e.g., your master's thesis).
Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis from late May 2026. Please submit your application through this online application portal by June 30th. We encourage you to apply as soon as possible since the position might be filled before the application deadline. Applications via email or postal services will not be considered.
For additional information, visit our website or contact David Pfeffer, or Inese Zepa (dpfeffer@ethz.ch, zepai@ethz.ch, please no email applications).

PhD student (m/f/d) in Molecular Plant Physiology- Freising
TUM | School of Life Sciences
截止时间:31 May 2026
About us
The Bienert Lab is part of the TUM School of Life Sciences of the Technical University of Munich located in Freising. The main objective of the research group ‘Crop Physiology’ is to understand the physiology of plants down to the structure and function of genes and proteins as well as relevant mechanisms, which allow optimizing agriculturally important quality and yield traits and the genera-tion of crops, which are beneficial for the society in terms of food-security (improved plant performance and stress tolerance) and food-safety (generation of healthier food). We focus in particular on molecular nutrient- and water efficiency mechanisms in plants. To this aim, our group synergistically bridges classic plant nutritional research with modern molecular biology.
Your tasks:
- In frame of the newly established DFG Research Unit “Soil-plant hydraulics impacting transpiration and plant growth in response to drought”, aiming to investigate how plants maintain their hydraulic linearity even under drought stress conditions, you will identify and characterize the molecular and physiological role of plant water channeling aquaporins in the regulation of of the cell-to-cell water transport pathways from roots to leaves in response to water deficits.
-You will strive for the identification of soil property-dependent anatomical, physiological, and particularly transcriptomic responses of isohydric and anisohydric maize genotypes to water limiting conditions, advancing our understanding on regulatory gene networks allowing plants to ensure hydric linearity on a short and diurnal time scale. -You will advance the understanding on an up to date and application-oriented climate-related agriculturally relevant research topic.
-You will interdisciplinary network with other PhD students and PIs of the DFG Research Unit and visit joint meetings.
Your qualifications and skills:
- You have a MSc or equivalent degree in biology or any related field.
- You have a very strong interest in molecular plant physiology. -You like to work with plants and have an advanced wet-lab experience in molecular biology & physiological approaches.
- You work precisely and reliably.
You fit to us:
- You are a highly-motivated researcher with the ambition and commitment to achieve scientific excellence in a world-class university with state-of-the-art facilities and scientists from all over the world.
- You want to develop your scientific skills and obtain an outstanding dissertation.
- You show a very strong team spirit and have the ability to work independently. -You have a passion for unraveling biological mechanisms, solving scientific questions and possess a high degree of self-initiative and individual responsibility to succeed in your tasks.
Our offer:
- An interdisciplinary research environment at the interface of molecular biology & plant physiology.
- Pro-active participation and exchange in the highly vivid Research Unit Alliance comprising 8 project groups from different universities in Germany.
- A friendly & productive working atmosphere in a highly motivated team.
- A straightforward and personal mentoring & career development.
- A position for four years starting 01.10.2026.
- A gross salary up to E13 TV-L (65%). Salary will be determined in accordance with the German collective wage agreement in public services.
