PhD funding at BUW

The BUW graduate support program awards doctoral scholarships in two rounds per year to particularly qualified students whose doctoral projects make a scientifically relevant contribution to their discipline. Basic scholarships with a funding period of up to two years are awarded to students who are at the beginning of their doctorate, and final scholarships of up to one year are awarded to advanced doctoral students whose doctoral project is so far advanced that it can be completed with above-average results in the time allotted for the scholarship. The application deadline is June 1st and December 1st of each year. Further information can be found on the BUW Graduate Funding website.

In addition, BUW chairs have the opportunity to award scholarships from third-party funds. These scholarships must be advertised publicly at the university. Interested students can find corresponding calls for applications either on the pages of the respective chairs or on the page on third-party funded scholarships. On this page you will also find further information and documents on the subject.
