What is Part time PhD?

If you are working in any educational institutions or Govt. approved industries or companies or organizations, you can register for Ph.D as part time student.

Part time scholar will be in his work place and do the research work by visiting the college / university in specified times. However, he has to attend certain number of classes and evaluation to complete the course work. Besides, he should have work experience in the same field of his research and the number of years of experience specified will vary with the college or university. He should obtain NOC for his higher study from the organization he is working.

Part time course is normally for 4years but it may take from 6 to 8 years to get doctorate depending on the college and course of choice. Obviously it is going to take more time when compared with full time.

Though part-time PhD would take twice the time to complete the programmed, it will also give you a few advantages such as after graduation, you will not only have a PhD diploma, but you would have also added a few years of work experience to your resume.

Yet a scholar doing a PhD. on a full-time basis stands a high chance of having more time to concentrate on their research work as they spend more time within the university and therefore the necessary resources are readily available.

According to the UGC’s March’17 notification, PhDs granted through distance education aren’t recognized. Only those attending full-time or part-time courses will be eligible for recognized degrees, especially during the appointment of academic staff in universities

PhD student (all genders) to work on R&D of monolithic active pixel sensors in the context of ALICE (part-time 65%)

Job Information

Offer description.

Area of research:

Scientific / postdoctoral posts

Starting date:

Job description:

GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung in Darmstadt operates one of the leading particle accelerators for science. Currently, the new FAIR ( F acility for A ntiproton and I on R esearch) one of the world's largest research projects, will be built in international cooperation. GSI and FAIR offer the opportunity to work in this international environment with a team of employees committed to ensuring each day to conduct world-class science.

The GSI ALICE department is looking for a

PhD student (all genders)

to work on R&D of monolithic active pixel sensors

in the context of ALICE

(part-time 65%)

Posting ID 24.107-1150

for a three-year contract to start as soon as possible.

ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment) is the dedicated heavy-ion experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Geneva, Switzerland. The aim of the ALICE Collaboration is to study the physics of strongly interacting matter at extreme energy densities, where the formation of the phase of matter called quark-gluon plasma is expected.

The group at GSI is one of the largest teams participating in ALICE, with important roles in detector operation, physics analysis and the collaboration management.

The position:

The successful applicant will be offered an excellent education in the field of monolithic active pixel sensors and of heavy-ion physics.

The successful applicant will be offered the great opportunity to characterize and operate pixel sensors in the laboratory and at test beams. The prime goal will be the evaluation of the next generation of 65 nm CMOS MAPS sensors produced in the context of the ALICE ITS3 preparations (Engineering Run 2) and of the ECFA DRD3 collaboration (Multi-Project Wafer 2). The results will be crucial for the further development of detectors for future experiments and facilities. This central goal is supported by several surrounding activities: irradiation studies, simulation of pixel devices, analysis of data recorded at test beams and in ALICE, and more. Impressions about the current activities in the group can be gathered here.

The student will be an integral part of the ALICE team at GSI, closely connected with all other ALICE-related activities of the group (including participation in the ALICE data taking and analysis, shifts, and service work). The research work will be conducted in close collaboration with the pixel experts in the GSI Detector Laboratory, and with the GSI Electronics Department. This setup will offer a broad-range education to the student, with exposure to various groups with different and complementary expertise. The student will be enrolled at the Heidelberg University, with access to the local prestigious graduate school.

Requirements:

• M.Sc. or equivalent degree in physics (to be obtained until the start of the contract)
• Knowledge in experimental particle and/or heavy-ion physics
• Experience in working with instrumentation (ideally with semiconductor sensors)
• Programming skills ( C++, ROOT, Python ) and familiarity with Linux
• Ability to work systematically and independently, as well as in a team
• Excellent oral and written communication skills.  

Please note that one of the requirements for admission to the Heidelberg Graduate School for Fundamental Physics (HGSFP) is to have the equivalent of the grade minimum 2,0 in the German system. This corresponds roughly to a “B+ grade” or better in the American or English system. More information about this is available here.

We offer you a fixed-term 3-year PhD student position with the salary and benefits based on the Collective Agreement for the German Public Service (TVöD-Bund) effective at GSI.

GSI supports the vocational development of women. Therefore, women are especially encouraged to apply for the position.

Handicapped persons will be preferentially considered when equally qualified.

Information about FAIR and GSI is available at www.gsi.de and www.fair-center.eu .

Inquiries concerning the position can be sent to Prof. Dr. Silvia Masciocchi (s.masciocchi(at)gsi.de).

Applications should include:

• a CV (with certificates),
• a motivation letter with your research interests and a proposal for the research project for your doctoral studies,
• the names of two references.

If you find this position interesting, please send all application documents stating the Posting-ID 24.107-1150 by 20th of September 2024 at the latest

Ph.D. in Psychology: What is it about?

Psychology is the study of the mind and behaviour. Psychologists examine both individual behaviours and the behaviour of groups, working towards understanding human activity, treating mental disorders, and counselling people to help them achieve emotional stability.

Psychology as an academic discipline encompasses a wide range of studies including attention, perception, comprehension, emotions, intelligence, personality, relationships, behaviour, and even the subconscious. Their work involves exploring and understanding the mind.

Being concerned with social behaviour, Psychology in many ways is related to the social sciences and humanities, such as Anthropology and Philosophy. They use similar research techniques as these disciplines, including conducting interviews and observing behaviour.

Psychology essentially relies on very scientific methods, using carefully designed experiments to produce reliable data about behaviour, emotions, and brain chemistry. Through years of observations and experiments, Psychologists determine ways to test for emotional stability or mental illness, and develop counselling techniques to encourage mental development, ease emotional pain, and promote healthy behaviour.
