The Ph.D. Network is a cooperation between universities and  research institutes from Germany and Denmark as well as the Inter-University-Center Dubrovnik Croatia.

Our common goals are to establish, develop and consolidate a network for doctorate degree courses. We offer a mutual exchange of information on doctoral education activities via this website that also provides access to these activities.  Financial obligations do not arise through the participation of these activities. The partners of the network shall support each other to obtain funding for the expansion for further cooperation.

If credit points are awarded and achieved through doctoral education activities, these points can be credited to the doctorate course at the university at which the participant is pursuing his or her doctorate degree.

Current coordinator of the network is Prof. Dr. Wenzel Matiaske from Helmut-Schmidt-University, Hamburg.
