Doctorates and Habilitations are arranged through personal contact with professors in the respective research area. These must be faculty members in the department of business, economics and law and willing to supervise thesis work in doctoral research (Dr. rer. pol. and Dr. iur.) or post-doctoral research (Habilitation).

Once an academic supervisor has been found, candidates should proceed to be admitted to doctoral studies (see below) and/or doctoral examinations (Promotion), or Habilitation procedures.

The department offers two doctoral studies programmes:

• TELIS (Transnational Economics and Law in the Information Society)
