Offers for doctoral candidates
Graduate School at MSH
The doctorate is the starting point of every scientific career. It is the only one degree recognized worldwide in both the academic and business sectors. Offers for doctoral candidates are therefore an important element in the promotion of young scientists at MSH.
The Graduate School is the central service facility of MSH for the promotion of young scientists.
It informs, promotes and networks doctoral students, scientific staff and postdocs of the university and supports the teachers in the individual promotion of junior scientists
The graduate school is assigned a structured doctoral program, in which the specific competences of this qualification phase are supported and the young scientists are optimally trained for an academic career and university leadership positions.
