Cooperation partners for subject-related and interdisciplinary competence development
The University of Oldenburg has two more graduate institutions that offer an interdisciplinary or subject-related qualification programme for doctoral candidates. The Graduate Academy is a service unit in the Department for Research and Transfer that offers an interdisciplinary qualification programme in the form of workshops and mentoring programmes for all early career researchers of all Schools. In the workshop programme you will regularly find offers e.g. for career development to familiarize yourself with various career options during your doctorate.
The Graduate School for Social Sciences and Humanities 3GO is a joint institution of Schools I - IV and offers doctoral candidates subject-related workshops and summer schools as well as advice on funding and qualification issues. Both individual doctoral candidates and doctoral candidates involved in structured programmes can participate in the 3GO program.
Partners for further qualification offers
The teaching and learning in higher education team (Hochschuldidaktik) offers a qualification programme, workshops, materials, exchange formats and (individual) counselling appointments for university lecturers. In addition to fundamental topics of teaching and learning in higher education, other focal points include research-based learning, gender & diversity and teaching and learning with digital media. The Day of Teaching and Learning (TdLL ) brings together lecturers, students and other interested parties. Particularly successful courses are recognized with the Award for Excellence in Teaching.
Since 2016, there has been a cooperation agreement between the universities of Bremen and Oldenburg in the area of graduate support. Doctoral candidates at the University of Oldenburg can therefore take advantage of the BYRD (Bremen Early Career Researcher Development) qualification programs. Take a look right now!
Collaboration Network in the region
The northwestern region of Germany is internationally recognized for its excellence in marine, polar and climate research. Together, universities and research institutions build a strong training network for early career scientists. Structured M.Sc. and Ph.D. programmes guarantee marine education and supervision on its highest level.
The University of Oldenburg and the University of Groningen have worked together closely for more than 40 years, having signed a cooperation agreement in 1980. With the founding of the University of Oldenburg's School/Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences this cooperation has deepened: the European Medical School, a joint project of the two universities, now offers a cross-border medical degree programme. This project is unique in Europe and sets new standards in medical education.
Groningen and Oldenburg scientists also collaborate closely in their work, creating synergies in pioneering areas of research. In addition, the two universities cooperate on clinical care services, ensuring that patients in the region benefit considerably from this German-Dutch collaboration. For the first time in 2023, several Oldenburg doctoral candidates also took part in the annual PhD Day in Groningen. The participation of the Oldenburg doctoral candidates was financially supported in 2023 and will be in 2024: Travel support PhD Day Groningen 2024

The language of education in all graduate courses is English. In most programmes, international doctoral researchers make up half of the student body. Close cooperation between the research institutions ensures that early career scientists are welcome to participate in trainings offered by programmess other than their own.
