For the first time, the São Paulo Office of Freie Universität Berlin and the Liaison Office for Latin America of the Technische Universität München are jointly offering a workshop that explicitly addresses doctoral study candidates from Brazil. The objective of the seminar is to provide comprehensive understanding of doctoral studies in Germany, specifically at two universities with a great number of international doctoral students.

---

The invited experts will provide information specific to Germany on topics such as funding possibilities, how to find a supervisor, and different formats for doctoral studies.

The classroom atmosphere will guarantee enough time and space for discussion among the participants, the invited experts, and Brazilian doctoral students who already are pursuing their PhD studies at the FU Berlin and TU München.
