Scientific Support
Participants in the doctoral program have a thesis advisor as well as a second thesis advisor. In addition to the intensive support of the scientific advisors, CeNS offers additional support in diverse research fields through its interdisciplinary network and infrastructure. This includes well equipped laboratories at the Ludwig-Maximilians-University (LMU), the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and at the University of Augsburg. The graduate program is structured to encourage the students to be active through e.g. self organization of graduate student seminars, summer schools and workshops. Financial and administrative support for realization of these activities is available from the administration of the International Doctorate Program.
