The Munich Aerospace Graduate School is a structured supplementary programme for all doctoral students in the Munich Aerospace research groups. It enables participation in a wide range of training opportunities, interdisciplinary exchange with scientists in the research groups, and the opportunity to present doctoral projects to the public. The graduate school for doctoral students in the Munich Aerospace research network consists of a basic programme and a supplementary programme.
Basic programme
The basic programme comprises the graduate programmes of the Technical University of Munich and the German Aerospace Centre: the TUM Graduate School and the DLR_Graduate_Program. Munich Aerospace scholarship holders decide for themselves which of the two programmes they would like to complete in full. As a rule, however, they choose the programme offered by the institution where they are primarily active.
Supplementary programme
The supplementary programme is organised by Munich Aerospace. It consists of annual retreat events in the form of a summer school and partner events which take place twice a year.
The retreat events are meetings lasting several days, at which the research groups can get to know each other and discuss their projects. In addition to presentations by experts from the Munich Aerospace research network, the doctoral students also present their own research work.
The partner events take place at the locations of the Munich Aerospace members and serve to promote networking between the partner institutions.
Participation
Doctoral students from other member chairs and institutes who can demonstrate a connection to a key topic of Munich Aerospace may participate in the events of the Munich Aerospace Graduate School upon request. Please contact the Munich Aerospace office for more information.
