Courses & Training

The demands placed on doctoral candidates and early-career researchers are diverse. For the successful completion of a doctoral program and a subsequent professional career, skills and knowledge are often required that go beyond the scope of academic education. The Doctorate School PLUS cross-faculty course program aims to promote and teach not only subject-specific expertise but also transferable skills. These courses can be credited as part of the special achievements, and doctoral candidates from all faculties are warmly invited to participate. You can find the course program in PLUSonline under the section:

The course offerings vary each semester, with some courses available in both the summer and winter semesters. The courses are offered in a compact, block format, making it easy to integrate them into the schedule of a doctoral program. You can find our course program in PLUSonline in the section: Degree Programmes > other study  >  Fakultätsübergreifendes Lehrangebot > Docotrate School PLUS
