Doing a Doctorate in Germany with a Foreign Degree

ABOUT THE BOOK

The doctorate, the highest level of academic studies, is a goal towards which many students strive toward. Germany is a very popular destination where academic excellence can be achieved in prestigious higher education institutions with top-quality education. There are certain admission requirements that all candidates need to meet, but for foreign students especially, the prerequisites should be carefully explored. Language proficiency, acknowledged Master’s degree, securing a supervisor, student visas and more – the list can appear overwhelming and discouraging, but getting informed is the first step towards the doctorate. This e-book will give prospective doctoral researchers from abroad all the essential know-how on getting started on the application process in Germany, along with the means of funding and scholarship options.
