    The European University Viadrina (EUV) and the German Graduate School of

    The aim of the doctoral program is to create knowledge about how

    GGS in Heilbronn. Scholarship recipients will participate in seminars at
    both institutions and develop their own dissertation and research agenda
    within the aim of the doctoral program.

    Residencies in both locations are required over the course of the program.
    The program language is English. Scholarships are based on the guidelines of
    the German Research Foundation (www.dfg.de).

    the postdoctoral scholarship a doctoral degree) in business studies, social
    or behavioral sciences, or related field. Interested applicants should send
