EURSalary Outlook
Salary Outlook
Typical range
The stated annual salary (e.g., TV-L E13: €50,000–€65,000 for 100%) refers to a full-time position. In practice, many universities and public research institutes (such as Leibniz institutes) offer part-time contracts, commonly 50%, 65%, or 75%, and only occasionally 100%. The actual salary is therefore proportional to the contract percentage. Applicants are strongly advised to clarify the employment percentage before accepting an offer.
Fresher, mid-level, and experienced ranges are linked to external sources so they stay auditable for applicants.

Academic Admission
BIOMEDAS is addressed to students who are interested in combining disciplinary knowledge with skills in biomedical data science. These can be either computer scientists or life scientists who already have a training in bioinformatics and are interested in developing their career in biomedical data science. In order to be registered to the PhD programme, a successfully completed university degree in computer science related fields (e.g. medical computer science, bioinformatics, physics, engineering, computer science, statistics, mathematics) or in health science related fields (e.g. medicine, veterinary medicine, pharmacy, life sciences) is mandatory. Applicants from the field of computer science have to demonstrate an adequate understanding of biomedical research, while applicants from the field of health sciences have to demonstrate competence in data science. The proof must be submitted to the programme commission, which may propose further qualification measures in consultation with the supervisor.
