Promotion centres

In 2016, Fulda University of Applied Sciences became the first university in Germany to be awarded the independent right to award doctoral degrees for a discipline and has been able to award doctoral degrees ever since. In the meantime, further disciplines have been added. This means that young researchers from Fulda University of Applied Sciences (but also from other universities and colleges) have the opportunity to pass their doctoral degrees in Fulda.

Doctoral centres have been set up in individual departments to exercise the independent right to award doctoral degrees. While some doctoral centres are located exclusively at Fulda University of Applied Sciences, others work together with partner universities on an inter-university basis. Learn more
