Registration for Doctorate Courses
(only for Students who have successfully graduated)

The doctorate must be registered in good time with the responsible committee of the faculty to secure the doctorate project. The documents that need to be submitted here are listed in the doctorate regulations.

The responsible committee of the faculty decides about acceptance and if necessary stipulates admission conditions. After this, an official letter of acceptance or rejection is sent to the postgraduate.

Please note that a registration can take place only after acceptance at the faculty.
