The GRADE Center GPE integrates a wide range of topics in philosophy, history and anthropology and offers training and support for doctoral candidates and postdocs in the faculty: They can apply for funding...

  • ...to finance or subsidise translations and printing costs in order to strengthen their scientific profile and international visibility.
  • ...for disciplinary and interdisciplinary networking, participation in relevant conferences.
