Doctoral degree
Doctorate
The doctorate serves as proof of the ability to conduct in-depth scientific work in a subject area represented by a professor at the University of Passau and is based on an independently conveyed academic work (dissertation) and an oral examination (rigorosum or disputation).
The Graduate Centre has compiled an information booklet for those interested in doing a doctorate, which you can use for orientation when starting.
