About 40 students are currently preparing their PhD thesis at ILL. The subjects of these theses cover every possible type of research with neutrons.

A thesis at ILL is always organised in cooperation with a university. Students usually spend three years at ILL (two years in the case of British universities), part of which is spent at the university.
If you would like to apply for a thesis at ILL, take a look at our PhD Programme.

The students are represented on the Science and Colleges Committee (SCC) by two representatives. If you are a student and have any issues you would like to raise with the college secretaries or the scientific director (Helmut Schober), you should contact us before the monthly meeting.
