You will spend the first semester at European University Viadrina in Frankfurt (Oder) near Berlin and the second semester at GGS in Heilbronn near Stuttgart. In the second and third year you will work on your dissertation and may choose to be based at either one of the two locations.
  *   You will be thoroughly educated as a management or marketing scholar.
  *   This is an international program and the language of instruction and coursework is English. You will be able to interact with the international research community at leading conferences and other research forums (e.g., summer schools).

What do we offer?

  *   A vibrant, stimulating and intellectually challenging institutional context with experienced researchers with different disciplinary and methodological backgrounds.
  *   A monthly scholarship of about 1,400 EUR per month (for a maximum of three years based on your progress in the program and your research project).
  *   Hard- and software required for your research project.
  *   Up to 3,500 EUR per year to fund your research and participation in conferences.

What do we expect from you?

  *   Proven ability and drive to conduct an independent research project, and potential to contribute to the overall efforts of the research group.
  *   A Master's degree (or equivalent) in business studies or a related field.
