Helmholtz Graduate Schools provide a roof under which a varied number of curricula in different fields, or across disciplines, can find a home, depending on the size and nature of the research centre. Helmholtz Graduate Schools can incorporate several Helmholtz Research Schools.
Helmholtz Graduate Schools constitute a valuable addition to the wide range of training programmes available within the Helmholtz Association. They offer optimal conditions for PhD students to work and enable them to create a network of contacts with fellow university researchers while also fostering the integration of participants into the research environment.
