Starting your doctorate
Our cooperation partner, the GSHS (Gutenberg Graduate School of Humanities and Social Sciences), has put together a catalog of info links on its doctoral information pages, which is dedicated to the following questions:
- Why (or why not) do a doctorate?
- I am interested in doing a doctorate at the JGU. How do I get started?
- What status do I have as a doctoral student at the JGU?
- How do I go about finding a supervisor?
- What issues can/should be addressed in the initial conversations at the beginning of the mentoring relationship?
- Do I need a supervision agreement and if so, how do I go about getting one?
- How can supervisory meetings proceed?
- Structured doctoral programme or individual doctorate?
- Structured doctoral programmes in the humanities and social sciences at the JGU
- Which doctoral studies fields are available at the JGU, and which one is right for me?
- How long does it take on average to complete a doctorate?
