Graduate Forum

C. M. Wieland

The University of Erfurt would like to support young academics in the best possible way and offer them the best possible support for their professional careers. With this in mind, it has brought together its graduate support in the "Christoph Martin Wieland Graduate Forum".

The structure builds on existing programmes, structures and units in that the forum bundles elements and organises them in an overarching manner. At the same time, the forum ensures cross-institutional quality assurance. In addition to doctoral researchers and postdocs, professors (for scientific content), the Research and Graduate Services staff unit and various committees and commissions, including the Senate Committee for Research and Promotion of Early Stage Researchers (for evaluation and conception), participate in the forum.

On the one hand, already established structures for doctoral studies can be used and further developed, and on the other hand, the university takes into account the characteristic of its existing graduate support: the interaction of the various areas for excellent support of those interested in doctoral studies, doctoral students and postdocs.
