Desy is an international and interdisciplinary working environment with more than 3000 DESYans working in a variety of occupational fields - including science, IT, economics and engineering, administration and technology. The research center DESY offers a variety of demanding scientific and non-scientific jobs with diverse career opportunities as well as a broad training program.
Desy is one of the world's leading accelerator centers, where researchers use the large-scale facilities to explore the microcosm in all its variety – from the interactions of tiny elementary particles and the behaviour of new types of nanomaterials to biomolecular processes that are essential to life. The accelerators and detectors that DESY develops and builds are unique research tools.
The facilities generate the world’s most intense X-ray light, accelerate particles to record energies and open completely new windows onto the universe.
