The Bauhaus Research School is a central research institution that promotes early stage researchers and artists at the Bauhaus University of Weimar. As the central contact point for all doctoral candidates at the university, we provide support in all questions related to the doctorate.
We organise a wide range of qualification programmes as well as advice and services, e.g. on the topics of career and funding. Beyond subject cultures and faculties, we offer opportunities for networking and interdisciplinary dialogue.
