PhD programme
Erlangen PhD programme in mathematics
This is a structured doctoral programme, which is designed for doctoral students,
has the following advantages:
- Doctoral students learn to perceive mathematics and mathematical research as a unity.
- The doctoral project will be defined on 1-2 pages in cooperation with the supervisor. This is like a contract, although not binding.
- Doctoral students gain experience in presenting their questions and results to a wider mathematical public.
- Applications for scholarships are supported.
- The doctoral programme, represented by its leadership, is an additional contact person who supports the doctoral students during the doctoral phase.
- There is the possibility to participate in courses of the FAU Graduate Center.
- With the doctorate, the doctoral students acquire the additional certificate of the doctoral program.
- The (scientific and personal) contact to other doctoral students in mathematics is intensified.
The doctorate itself is filed according to the doctoral regulations of NatFak. The few rules can be taken from the statutes of the doctoral programme. There you can read in particular that an application for admission to the doctoral programme is possible at any time. The application contains a short curriculum vitae and the above mentioned short description of the doctoral project. If you have any further questions, please contact the
current collegial management of the doctoral programme: Profs. Grün, Schulz-Baldes (Director), Neeb
