MARUM Research Academy

Graduate programmes with the involvement of MARUM

MARUM has a long tradition of supporting early-career researchers in graduate programmes, research training groups, collaborative research centres and other formats. From the very beginning, we have always had an international and multidisciplinary focus on our teams and research topics. We have graduate programmes running under the roof of the MARUM Research Academy and others that we are/were involved in.

Bremen-based doctoral researchers who are members of a graduate programme that is part of a larger project with the involvement of MARUM can also become an external member of the MARUM Research Academy. You are welcome to contact us if this applies to you!
