All applications need to be supported by a minimum of two academic reference letters and are evaluated solely on the basis
of qualification and scientific potential.You can submit your application irrespective of the fact if your referees have completed the online reference form or not, as the submission does not impede referees access to the application. As stated within the online application form we only accept references provided through institutional email accounts.
Referees must submit their online references by latest 19 April 2017, 23:59 CET (GMT+1). We strongly suggest that you complete the ‘general info’ and ‘references’ part of the online application first in order to give your referees enough time to complete the reference online. Furthermore please make sure to contact your referees before completing this part in order to find out if they are available and willing to provide a reference. It is the applicant’s responsibility to ensure that references reach us on time.
