Funding and support for early-career researchers

There are various ways and means to finance a doctorate. Most doctoral candidates are employed as research assistants at the university or a university-related research institute, finance themselves or receive a scholarship.

Each form of financing has advantages and disadvantages that must be weighed individually.  

At the University of Tübingen, positions for doctoral students are advertised via the job portal.

The University of Tübingen does not award any doctoral scholarships. However, doctoral students of all subjects have the opportunity to apply for the state graduate funding. More information can be found here.

All major funding agencies also offer their own doctoral scholarships: Overview

There is the possibility to apply for a STIBET-scholarship for international, non-European students who are struggeling financially while finishing their PhD. For further information, please send an e-mail to simone.hahnespam prevention@uni-tuebingen.de

The Graduate Academy will be glad to advise you.
