PhDs

Supervising and promoting PhD students is one of the central tasks of the chairgroup. Three different strategies are combined: First, the chairgroup pursues actively the acquisition of project funding for fully-funded PhD projects; second, the chairgroup explores possibilities of PhDs funded by scholarships; third, external PhD students are encouraged and recruited from alumnis.
