Graduate Academy Our Offers
Qualification Workshops

Qualification Workshops

We provide - in collaboration with other service facilities of Leibniz University Hannover- a programme of workshops and events especially tailored for young academics.

Usually, 10-15 Ph.D. candidates and Postdocs from Leibniz University Hannover can take part in the Graduate Academy workshops. Interested parties from other universities can also be admitted if places are available.

Unless otherwise stated, all workshops are held in German. If an English-language workshop offer is required, do not hesitate to contact us. We are happy to try to implement this in consultation with the trainers and participants. Also, please do not hesitate to contact us for thematic workshops that are to be carried out for already established Ph.D. groups or other work teams (minimum eight people).

Note: Generally, the Graduate Academy uses the “first come, first served” principle, so the participants for the workshops are placed in order of the incoming registrations! If not otherwise stated the course language is German.

Please refer to the chart below for suited target group and costs. More information for each workshop is provided by clicking on the workshop title.

If necessary, please check the possibility to use the childcare services for employees and students at Leibniz University for attending our events.
