The basis of all scientific work at the University of Passau are the recognized principles of scientificity such as honesty, work lege artis, documentation of results and consistent doubting of all results. Scientific misconduct damages the individuals involved, the university, and science as a whole. In order to create awareness of the basic rules and also to strengthen trust among scientists, the Graduate Center offers free participation in an e-learning tool on "Good Scientific Practice" designed by Goethe University Frankfurt.
Here you can request your online access:

Passau Young Researchers Excellence Centre
Within the framework of the Passau Young Researchers Excellence Centre (PYREC), the University of Passau promotes interfaculty collaboration among young researchers and offers a public space to present research results.
Every semester, university-wide colloquia are held in which junior researchers can publicly present their research.
We will announce the next date in due time.
Coaching
We are pleased to offer you free individual coaching in cooperation with the systemic consultant, Ms. Franziska Janker, against the background of your doctoral, postdoc or habilitation phase.
We all want to achieve our goals, the small ones as well as the big ones. A doctorate is one of the larger projects in life and brings with it many challenges. In addition to the professional or organizational hurdles, you as a doctoral candidate may also be pushed to your personal limits. Work demands, writing blocks, complex processes or unexpected changes are familiar to many. The time and mental balance between work at the chair and research sometimes feel challenging. It is a lot of work in any case.
We want for you that your doctoral project feels like "a lot of work and pleasure" instead of "a lot of work and a burden".
We offer personal coaching for this purpose: online or on-site. In a relaxed atmosphere, we can find out together what you need for a successful work-life balance, what is too much, what is missing, where things are stuck, where an imbalance has arisen. We focus on your resources and strategies that have helped so far.
As a systemic consultant you are the expert of your life. Together we take the solution-focused view. I help you to find your own solutions and accompany you step by step in your life phase of graduation. The free appointments usually last 50 minutes and can take place online, in a welcoming room in Ludwigstraße or in the café of your choice - however you feel comfortable. I will be happy to clarify any further questions with you in advance during a non-binding phone call.

The "DigiKol" sees itself as a network of doctoral and post-doctoral law students conducting research in the field of digitalization. The research focuses are broadly diversified in the various fields of law and cover, among other things, topics such as artificial intelligence, blockchain and platform regulation, as well as data protection and data business law issues. The DigiKol concept rests on three pillars: Exchange, Colloquia and Networking.
The BayWISS-Verbundkolleg Communikation | Media is one of eleven Verbundkollegs in Bavaria and thematically focuses on the central question: "What influence does the digital transformation have on public interest-oriented communication (journalism) and strategic communication (public relations) as well as on business models in the media?" It networks researchers in Bavaria across university types and provides a strong platform for developing synergies. Thanks to the lively network and non-material and financial support, outstanding graduates, especially from universities of applied sciences, become excellent researchers in the BayWISS-Verbundkolleg.
The Verbundkolleg Economics promotes cooperative doctoral studies at Bavarian universities of applied sciences and universities. There, scientists work, discuss and research together - across disciplines and universities. They combine scientific research and expert knowledge with practical application results and thus create targeted and demand-oriented innovation - for the economy, for Bavaria as a business location and beyond.
The funding program enables doctoral candidates to network and receive further training in the field of digitization as well as financial support for research activities as part of their doctoral project.
Doctoral projects by particularly qualified doctoral candidates that have a technically, economically or socially relevant focus that is significant for digitization are to be funded by the Bavarian State Ministry of Science and the Arts.
Admission to the Graduate Center enables participation in events and courses on current and relevant topics of digitization, as well as the receipt of a scholarship.
Participants of the Graduate Center also have access to all bidt events, can benefit from an interdisciplinary exchange with other PhD students as well as experts from science and society within the framework of networking events and working groups, and increase their visibility within the professional community and beyond.
The Graduate Center for PhD students is coordinated by bidt.
