What funding options are available for my PhD, how can I access them, and what are their respective advantages and disadvantages? Who can support me with funding-related questions? And what should I do if the funds run out before my PhD is completed?
For these and other questions, this hybrid event offers you the opportunity to meet experienced PhD peers and advisors, regardless of whether you're interested in scholarships, cotutelle, project positions, research assistantships at a chair, or funding through parish or teaching positions. PhD candidates from the Faculty of Philosophy and Theology will present their funding pathways and share their personal experiences. They will be supported by Dr. Sabine Heerwart and Rebecca Bungert from the GSGG.
The talk will be delivered in German, while the presentation slides will be in English. Questions can be asked in either German or English.
All those considering a PhD or already underway in their doctoral studies are welcome. Please feel free to share this invitation with others who might be interested!

Best regards,
The PhD Representatives of the GSGG
