How to apply at the Faculty of Engineering

How to apply

 

 

PhD at the Faculty of Engineering

PhD in Germany

In Germany, PhD studies work somewhat differently. As a doctoral student, you are no longer just a student, but instead involved over a period of about three to five years in writing a high-level scientific dissertation, which you will have to defend at an examination board.

At a technical faculty, you are usually employed as a research assistant during this period, working on a research project and supervising students. The research project is often closely related to your dissertation. An application for a doctorate is therefore almost always accompanied by an application for a job as a research assistant. Professors usually select these candidates from their Master's students. Without the offer of supervision by a professor, a doctorate is not possible.

See the Doctoral Degree Regulation (Rules) of the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences and the Faculty of Engineering at Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel of August 2018 for more details.

See here section 22 as well for information on the fast-track doctoral degree, which combines a Master's program with a PhD program for outstanding B.Sc. students.

Website made by international students for international students (Kiel)

In 2016, a project team of international students created a website for international students, that study or want to study at Christian-Albrechts-University of Kiel.

The English Website kieldoitawesome offers helpful tips and information about organizational matters at CAU and daily life questions in Kiel

Kiel is about 90 kilometres to the north of Hamburg and it is the capital city of Schleswig-Holstein, Germany’s northern-most federal state.

At the end of 2015, the municipal registration office recorded a population of 246,269.

The city stretches around the Kiel Fjord. The port of Kiel is right in the city centre, opposite the main train station.

With approx. 1.8 million passengers (2015 statistics), Kiel port is the fifth largest passenger ship port in the whole of Germany. And once a year, always at the end of June, the world’s largest sailing event takes place in Kiel: : Die Kieler Woche
