GradUS – The Support Centre for Doctoral Researchers at Saarland University

GradUS promotes a cooperative, transdisciplinary and internationally oriented culture in doctoral research at Saarland University.

What does that mean?

GradUS coordinates and organises support for doctoral candidates at Saarland University: from financial support and the organisation of workshops to the coordination of work and leisure activities and the provision of information. In short: GradUS improves the research conditions of doctoral students - all doctoral students.

What does GradUS do for me?

Depending on your wishes and personal interests, you can take part in GradUS workshops or benefit from the wide range of funding opportunities offered by ‘GradUS global’. In addition, you can have your working group or your doctoral student day sponsored by GradUS, order official business cards, discuss with other doctoral students at the regulars' table or at other leisure activities, or you can simply make use of the extensive information offered by GradUS.

In any case, GradUS will help you to acquire skills, gain experience and build networks alongside your doctorate, which will be essential for the start of your career.
