Working Groups of the Graduate School Humanities

The Working Groups of the Graduate School Humanities are comprised of young researchers from different disciplines working on related topics, as well as two mentors who have excelled internationally in the field. Together they determine the content and programme of the respective groups to reflect the research interests of the doctoral candidates.

The Focus Groups meet in regular colloquia, where they present their projects and discuss questions of method and theory. In addition, the doctoral candidates of the Focus Groups organise workshops and small conferences, invite guest speakers and arrange excursions. More information is provided in the programmes of the various groups on the following pages.
