A new large-scale research centre is being established in the heart of Europe – in Lusatia. The German Centre for Astrophysics is creating an open research campus for people from all over the world in Görlitz and an underground laboratory in the Lusatian granite massif. The DZA brings together leading scientists from the fields of astrophysics, technology development and data science in one place. This is creating an important driver for change in the Lusatia region, powered by innovations from cutting-edge research.

We are creating up to 1,000 jobs and want to attract the best people in science. We are also looking forward to welcoming motivated people who want to make research possible. The fields of work range from skilled trades to technical areas and administrative tasks.

International and interdisciplinary cooperation characterise our everyday life as the DZA crew. We are globally networked, value diversity, tolerance and mutual respect, and are thus jointly shaping the future of research and Lusatia
