Period of participation

?

With the completion of the sixth semester (after three years) your regular participation in graduate school ends. If you have not finished your doctorate by then, you can apply twice for an extension of two semesters each time by submitting the extension form (Verl?ngerungsantrag). Please think about the submission in time, as the speaker group has to decide on your application. Anyone who has submitted their dissertation after three years (or four or five years with a proper extension) will receive a final graduation grant upon application. You can have your participation at the GGS certified even without submitting it in due time. For this purpose, an informal letter together with evidence of attendance or organization of courses, conferences, seminars, etc. is sufficient. Leaves of absence due to illness granted by the speaker group are not counted towards the six or ten semesters, so they lead to an extension. The same applies to periods of pregnancy/maternity leave or parental leave. Important: You must inform GGS about this.

Offers and promotions

?

During your participation in the GGS, you can borrow a laptop including equipment, receive a key to one of the four individual workspaces in the BCM and activate a book lending function, that allows bringing reading room literature to the individual workspace at BCM. Corresponding forms are available for download below and in the office of the Graduate School. Every doctoral candidate at GGS can apply for a small grant for research trips, conferences, or workshops. For this purpose, please send a short application letter stating the reason for the event to the spokesperson at the graduate school, enclose original invoices and send it to the coordination office along with your bank and address details. In particular cases of hardship (childcare, barrier-free equipment, etc.) or to pay for publication and printing costs in the last phase of the doctorate, additional funding can be applied for. Again, please submit a letter stating the reasons and evidence and do not forget your bank and address details.
