Welcome to the doctoral studies programme in social sciences

The aim of doctoral studies at the Faculty of Social Sciences is to qualify students to take on responsible tasks in research and teaching and in non-university professional fields. The doctoral studies programme in social sciences combines the highest academic standards, tailor-made courses and excellent supervision. You can pursue a doctoral degree as a research assistant, as a member of a graduate college or doctoral programme, as a scholarship holder or alongside your (external) professional activity. The Faculty of Social Sciences offers a structured doctoral studies programme for this purpose. The doctoral studies programme "Social Sciences" is part of the Göttingen Graduate School of Social Sciences (GGG). Detailed information on funding and qualification measures for doctoral candidates can be found on the GGG website. Information on the application procedure can be found here.
