graduate academy

Through establishing a Graduate Academy (GA), the Technische Universität Dresden wants to provide extensive and individual support to its young scientists during their PhD and postdoc phase. The GA one of the core elements of TUD's Institutional Strategy to strengthen the university’s position competing for the best national and international scientists.

The Graduate Academy aims at creating ideal research and working conditions for PhD students and postdocs throughout the university in order to qualify them for distinguished positions in science, the economy and society.

As an umbrella organisation the GA accommodates both doctoral students within or outside of structured PhD-programs and external doctoral students in industry as well as scientists on every stage of the postdoc phase. At the same time it helps increase the visibility and promotes the identity of PhD and postdocs as distinct groups at the university.

All PhD students and their academic mentors as well as all postdocs at the TU Dresden can apply for membership at the Graduate Academy. PhD students at TUD partner institutions and visiting scientists at the TUD can be accepted as associated members.

The Graduate Academy offers its members:

1.       customised and interdisciplinary training and coaching
2.       individual counselling and assistance, e.g. financial support
3.       regular events affording opportunities for interdisciplinary exchange and networking with research and industrial partners
4.       safeguarded overall standards of academic supervision and quality during the PhD phase

The Graduate Academy is presently being established. Our services will be available from autumn 2013.
