Bi-nationally Supervised Doctoral DegreesThe DAAD Bi-nationally Supervised Doctoral Degrees is open to candidates to do a bi-national doctoral degree at their home university and at a university in Germany. The students are to be fully funded with research grants and stipends of 1,200 Euros monthly. Interested candidates are urged to send forward their applications.

Program Details

The program has two possible options;

(a) Doctorate with bi-national supervision:
Your doctoral project is supervised by a university teacher both at your home university and at the host institute in Germany (so-called “sandwich model”). Your project must be agreed with both supervisors according to the following procedure:

  • You start your doctoral degree in your home country.
  • This is followed by research trips to Germany.
  • You complete your doctorate in your home country and are also supervised by the German academic adviser.
  • Your home university awards the doctoral degree.

(b) Doctorate following the “Cotutelle” procedure:
Funding is provided for doctoral projects that are carried out at the home university and at a university in Germany according to the so-called Cotutelle model. After you have successfully completed your doctorate, the German university and your home university award the doctoral degree jointly.
