Munich Graduate School of Sociology (MuGSS)
With the launch of its new bachelor's and master's programs in sociology in the winter semester of 2018/19, the Department of Sociology at the LMU established its own graduate school, the Munich Graduate School of Sociology (MuGSS).
As a result, the Department of Sociology offers an integrated and consecutive qualification program for academically oriented students and graduates of sociology. The MuGSS itself however, does not offer its own scholarship program.
Objective
The Graduate School is aimed at all doctoral students who are supervised by the Department of Sociology. With a structured doctoral program tailored to their individual needs, doctoral students are supported in their research work and in acquiring further academic qualifications. Additionally, the MuGSS serves to promote networking among doctoral students as well as scientists of other qualification levels.
