Overview

The doctoral Georesources and Material Technology programs at RWTH Aachen University are very individual and practically-oriented. They focus on obtaining new scientific findings, with the thesis providing evidence of independent research activities.

Features

Each of the faculties is responsible for running its own doctoral program. The faculties' Post-Graduate Study Regulations define the requirements for post-graduate study and the structure of the doctoral program.

The Doctoral Academy at RWTH Aachen University provides doctoral candidates with the opportunity to document all credits outside the thesis obtained in the Doctoral Academy program in Doctoral Academy doctoral supplements, which can be printed out in report format for job application purposes.
