Exciting changes are here! The new study regulations have been on their way and are to be released in the upcoming weeks. They’re a direct result of the Studiengangentwicklung process, shaped by your feedback and ideas. This has been a major effort to improve the programme and better support your PhD journey. Join us for an info session about the new regulation. After the session, stay for an aperó to celebrate the launch of the new regulations and connect with your fellow PhD students.

Stay warm and see you around!
