Life

From 1982 to 1988 he studied physics at the University of Konstanz . After completing his doctorate in experimental physics in 1992 in the group around Günter Schatz, in which the method of disturbed γγ angle correlation (PAC) was successfully used to investigate semiconductor surfaces for the first time, he switched to Edward J.'s group for a year. Kramer to the Department for Materials Science and Engineering at Cornell University in Ithaca, NY. There he began investigations on thin polymer films and polymer surfaces. In 1995 he completed his habilitation in the group of Jürgen Mlynek at the University of Konstanz in experimental physics and in 1996 became professor of physical chemistry at theLudwig Maximilians University of Munich . Krausch spent several research stays at the Weizmann Institute of Science (Rehovot, Israel) and at the Brookhaven National Laboratory (Brookhaven, USA). In 1998 he moved to the University of Bayreuth , where he held a chair for physical chemistry. From 2003 to 2007 he was Vice President for Research and Young Scientists at the University of Bayreuth.

Georg Krausch has been President of Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz since 2007 . On December 8, 2017, the Senate of Johannes Gutenberg University elected Krausch early for a third term from April 1, 2019 to March 31, 2025.
