Dirk received a diploma in geophysics in 1981 from Clausthal Technical University and a Ph.D. from Karlsruhe University in 1987. After his Ph.D., he spent two years at Stanford University and at the Center for Computational Seismology at the Lawrence Berkeley Lab in Berkeley, California. From 1990 until 1992, he worked as an assistant professor at Clausthal Technical University. He was appointed associate professor at the Institute of Geophysics of the University of Hamburg in 1993, where he holds the chair of Applied Seismics since 2006.
