Academic Programme HGGS Seminars
The interdisciplinary programme of the HGGS offers doctoral candidates in the humanities, law, and social sciences a selection of lectures, seminars, and workshops, and regularly hosts conferences and academic schools. Visiting faculty from abroad enrich the academic exchange with PhDs and contribute to the international networking of early-career researchers.
The six faculties of the humanities, law, and social sciences make an important contribution to the education of doctoral candidates by regularly opening their courses to HGGS members. Faculty members from Heidelberg University also offer interdisciplinary courses at the Marsilius-Kolleg, which complement the HGGS program. Each semester, HGGS members can also attend seminars at the 4EU+ universities, participate in HDZ workshops aimed at improving teaching methods, and take a range of other courses designed to enhance their skills and broaden their horizons. The certificate of completion issued by the HGGS lists all successfully completed courses.
