Current PhD Students

All PhD students are regularly provided relevant information by the GSS through the GSS-PhD newsletter. Topics include information about rules and regulations, courses offered by the graduate school and other parties, summer schools and career events, and developments within the university, the faculty and the GSS.

Most information available via the GSS portal is of interest to current PhD students. All information for current PhD students is collected in the PhD Guide.

Some highlights:

• Organisation: Who we are, and how we can help you. (download here [PDF] the printable overview including working hours and contact information)
