Open position
I do not have an opening PhD position or postdoc position now. I will broadcast it on Twitter and LinkedIn once I have an opening.
My advice for people looking for a PhD position
You must know why you want to do a PhD given the beautiful life you currently have.
Talk with students who worked with the supervisor before accepting the offer. A good supervisor could have long-term positive effects on your faith and career, and vice versa.
Please do not attempt to work with me if you just want to do the minimum work to obtain a “pass” for the degree.
It increases your chances a lot if you can do your master's thesis or an internship in the target group, or if you can get a strong recommendation letter from a well-known person.
Do not be afraid to ask. Your email would be ignored in the worst case.
MSc thesis topics
I have multiple master thesis topics and industrial internship opportunities that I cannot update here in time. Please directly write me an email with a CV and transcript if you are interested in working with me.
