The Graduate Center is open to all young researchers at the university. It supports them, among other things, by offering information, advice and events as well as financial support programs.

The Graduate Center also offers events every semester for doctoral students and those interested in doctoral studies. The range of events (German) supports you in the successful completion of your research project as well as in your personal development and promotes your professional success in academia or in the non-university sector.
