Graduate Academy

The Graduate Academy of the Carl von Ossietzky University of Oldenburg
The Graduate Academy is the central and transdisciplinary institution of the university that supports the career development of early career researchers in all phases and from all schools. Its program is open to all early career researchers of the university and offers transdisciplinary workshops on transferable skills relevant for various academic career paths. In line with the Oldenburg Model of Competences the Graduate Academy aims to support early career researchers in the development of their own profile and in the acquisition/deepening of transdisciplinary competences that they have partly acquired/will partly acquire as part of their disciplinary education. The University of Oldenburg is convinced that the combination of disciplinary and transdisciplinary competences prepares early career researchers in the best way possible for their further career. On top of this, the university's two graduate schools offer subject-related, interdisciplinary workshops for the doctoral candidates of the respective schools.

Networks and Complexity
Networks are everywhere. Examples include the internet on which you are reading this text, the power grid that delivers electricity to your home, the food webs which form the backbones of ecosystems, the social networks which allows opinions, ideas and diseases to spread among humans and the networks of biochemical reactions that sustain all life on earth.
In this course we will understand how network thinking can be used to make sense of the many complex processes around us. Along the way we will be drawing on ideas from Physics, Mathematics, Computer Science, Ecology and Sociology.
