THESys Graduate Program - Transformations of Human-Environment Systems
The THESys Graduate Program is the doctoral program of HU’s Integrative Research Institute on Transformations of Human-Environment Systems (IRI THESys). It is organized by the institutes and faculties of HU that collaborate in the IRI THESys together with regional partners, e.g. PIK (Potsdam), IAMO (Halle), IGB (Berlin).
Focus
The THESys Graduate Program offers doctoral candidates an ideal environment for doctoral research within the scientific scope of IRI THESys. Research at IRI THESys focuses on the use of land and resources, urbanization in the 21st century, climate change impact as well as intra-/intergenerational environmental justice. Scientists at IRI THESys come, for example, from agricultural economics, social anthropology, geography, philosophy, physics or economics.
The THESys Graduate Program is open to all doctoral candidates from institutions involved in IRI THESys on application. The guiding principle behind doctoral research in the program is to foster disciplinary depth embedded in an interdisciplinary context. Thus, the curriculum covers modules on developing interdisciplinary competencies, deepening disciplinary specialization, entering new disciplines and training key competencies. Moreover, the program offers its students summer schools and access to travel funds.
