Integrating your PhD candidate into the IGradU 

The Graduate School recruits new PhD Students for the International PhD Programme in Molecular Medicine twice a year. As the programme can be started in April and October, the application periods are June 1 to 30 for the winter semester and December 2 to January 15 for the summer semester. 

Project leaders who have PhD students in their lab who are not yet part of our PhD Programme can integrate these persons into the International PhD Programme in Molecular Medicine. As the external applicants (see above), these candidates have to apply for the programme formally and have to meet the admission requirements. The Graduate School evaluates the applications and invites suitable candidates to the PhD Selection Days. On the Selection Days the applicants have to give an oral presentation on the topic of their master thesis and future project.

Please note: If you have an interesting candidate and want to integrate him/her into our PhD programme, please ask this person to apply directly at the International Graduate School in Molecular Medicine Ulm. Candidates can only be admitted into the programme if they meet the formal requirements and successfully pass our selection procedure. 

After the PhD Selection Day

Candidates who succeed on the PhD Selection Days can be admitted into the PhD Programme if a project leader officially agrees to accept this person as a PhD student. Successful candidates will receive an official letter of admission 2-3 weeks after the PhD Selection Days.
