Graduate School EES
Mission
- The GS-EES addresses the full, community-spanning spectrum of electrochemical energy storage and conversion, from fundamental science to processing and application
- The GS-EES offers a comprehensive education and training program in these areas, emphasizing interdisciplinary aspects
- The GS-EES is committed to offer professional skills training
About GS-EES
The GS-EES offers excellent graduation conditions.
Some highlights are:
- Support for a three-month research stay abroad
- Annual Summer School
- Workshops on scientific or method-related topics and on professional skills
- Interdisciplinary block course Materials, Functioning and Technology of Batteries
The GS-EES is located at two main sites, at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and at Ulm University (UUlm). In addition, the Center for Solar Energy and Hydrogen Research (ZSW) at Ulm und the JLU Giessen participate in the activities.
The GS-EES addresses the full interdisciplinary spectrum of electrochemical energy storage and conversion, from fundamental science to processing and application.
Research fields are Li-ion batteries, post Li batteries, fuel cells, etc.
The GS-EES operates within the Center for Electrochemical Energy Storage CELEST.
Doctoral researchers doing their research in the framework of the Cluster of Excellence POLiS take part in the Graduate School Electrochemical Energy Storage. POLiS funds about 60 Doctoral researchers.

Education / Training
Qualification program
The qualification Program of the GS-EES is dedicated to
- assist the doctoral researchers in successfully pursuing their research in the multidisciplinary field of electrochemical energy storage.
- support the doctoral researchers in building an (international) network and foster collaborations.
- provide assistance to the doctoral researchers to improve their professional skills for their future career in industry and academia.
The qualification program is based on three columns:
GS-EES
The Core Program is mandatory for all members of the GS-EES. It includes
- the Block Course ”Materials, Functioning and Technology of Batteries”, covering the full spectrum of electrochemical energy storage and conversion battery research, from theory to engineering and from fundamentals to applications.
- the annual Summer School, focusing on the scientific exchange and discussions and elements of professional skills training.
- the Research Abroad phase, a 3 months research stay at a foreign laboratory, to support international networking and cultural experience.
- The Scientific Training and the Professional Skills Training can be tailored to the individual needs of each doctoral researcher, aiming at a broad basis in these areas.

Goal: Aim of the workshop is to give an introduction into electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS):
- Gain fundamental understanding of EIS
- Understand the physical origins of impedance (as opposed to resistance)
- Use electric components to describe electrochemical processes (equivalent circuits)
- Learn good-practice for analysis and presentation of electrochemical impedance spectra
- Raise awareness of the complexity of impedance spectroscopy in electrochemistry and battery research in particular.
- Increase knowledge about the potential and the restrictions of the method
We will spare you as much math as possible for this lecture series and provide you with qualitative knowledge.
Date: 24.05.2022 - 25.05.2022
Location: Ulm University, Lise-Meitner-Straße 16
There may be a video broadcast of the lectures and an additional practice group at KIT, if there is sufficient interest for that.

Workshop NEW GENERATION – BATTERIES AND TALENTS
Goal
The workshop features presentations from lead industry in the field of batteries and off ers ten pitch presentations from POLiS PhD students and PostDocs, introducing their most current results. The event off ers m utual and intimate exchange of hot topics and fresh ideas in the fi eld of new generation batteries, with plenty of space for meetings and open discussions.
Time & Date: 26.10.2021, 2:00 - 18:00
Location: KIT Campus North
Registration:
Participants have to contribute a pitch presentation of 5 min related to their research. You can compose the presentation rather freely, we would love to see talks that are innovative and have a link to applications but it is not mandatory.
The number of participants is restricted to 10 (due to Covid19) which gives you the opportunity for an intensive exchange.
Please apply for participation by sending a title and a short abstract to POLiS Technology Transfer Manager (georg.bosch@kit.edu) until 29 September.

XPS Workshop
Goal
The workshop mainly aims at researchers who (plan to) include X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy as characterization method in their studies.
You will learn about the fundamentals, the potential and the restrictions of the method.
The main goal of the workshop is to improve your skills in planning your XPS measurements and in peak fitting / interpreting the measured spectra.
Schedule
The workshop will mainly be held online (with Thomas Diemant) but you will also perform an XPS measurement in groups of two. These measurements can either be done at the IAM-ESS with Vanessa Trouillet for researchers from Karlsruhe or at the HIU with Thomas Diemant for researchers from Ulm. Individual appointments will be made for this with the groups.
Time & Date: Several sessions between 15.10.2020 and 03.11.2020 (see schedule in flyer)
Location: Mostly online, demo sessions (XPS measurements) at HIU or at IAM-ESS
Workshop instructors: Thomas Diemant and Vanessa Trouillet
Registration: Online until 01.10.2021
The workshop is open for GS-EES, CELEST and HIU members.
GS-EES members will gain 1 CP within „Scientific Training”
The number of participants for the XPS measurements (mandatory for gaining GS-EES CPs) is restricted to 12 in Karlsruhe and 12 in Ulm. First come, first served.
There are no restrictions for the number of participants in the online lectures.
Summerschool 2021
The Summerschool aims at scientific exchange and teambuilding within the GS-EES and POLiS and also includes scientific talks from external speakers.
Each doctoral researcher will present a poster. During the Summerschool the posters will be divided into 6 groups. For each group there will be 2 dates, when each group member will be available for discussions about their poster in an individual break-out session.

Workshop "Unconscious Bias"
Goal
The workshop addresses origins and effects of (un-)conscious biases as well as machanisms of discrimination. Theoretical and practical aspects will be covered to increase the awareness for diversity and structures of suppression.
Date: 12.04.2021. 9:00 - 16:00

Workshop Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy EIS
Goal
Aim of the lectures is to supply the researchers with knowledge about the physical principles and practical analysis of impedance spectra applied to electrochemical systems. The researchers will learn about the fundamentals of frequency response analysis and system identification theory, how to acquire impedance spectra with minimized artefacts, how to analyse impedance spectra and extract significant physical parameters. The researchers will also acquire knowledge on state-of-the-art impedance methods for analysis of non-linear and non-stationary systems.
Schedule
The workshop will be held online. It consists of two blocks.
Block 1: Lectures, 15.03.2021 - 17.03.2021
Block 2: Practical aspects of EIS analysis will be addressed by processing example spectra of lithium-ion batteries in home assignments. The results of these practical exercises will be discussed in a seminar (31.03.2021).
Participation in block 2 is optional.
Location: online
Workshop instructor: Prof. Fabio La Mantia, Universität Bremen
