Doctorate in Mathematics
The Bonn Mathematics doctoral program is based at the Bonn International Graduate School in Mathematics (BIGS). BIGS belongs to the HCM (Hausdorff Center for Mathematics) as part of the Cluster of Excellence funded by the German government.
The doctorate usually lasts three years and graduates are awarded the title "Dr. rer. nat.". A prerequisite for doctoral studies is a first degree. This is normally a Master's degree, in exceptional cases a Bachelor's degree is also sufficient.
For non-subject-specific questions about a doctorate at the University of Bonn, you are welcome to contact the Bonn Graduate Center. Among other things, it offers qualification workshops for those interested in doing a doctorate and doctoral candidates.
