IMPRS-ML Guidelines and Regulations

This document outlines the academic responsibilities and rules of good doctoral supervision implemented in the International Max Planck Research School for Molecules of Life (IMPRS-ML).

The IMPRS curriculum is designed to provide theoretical and practical knowledge and to confer competence in biochemistry, structural biology, biophysics, cell biology, systems biology, and computational biology. In addition, IMPRS-ML doctoral researchers (DRs) shall be exposed to interdisciplinary science and shall acquire complementary skills necessary for a successful career in science and be supported in making informed career choices. To successfully pass the IMPRS-ML program, DRs have to complete coursework equivalent to
25 ECTS credits, consisting of mandatory elements worth of 16 ECTS and elective elements worth of 9 ECTS credits. The IMPRS office will keep a record of course activities/collected credits, but the final responsibility for the completeness of this record resides with the DR.
