These students will enter a focused, intensive three-year program leading to a PhD (Dr. rer. pol). It is the expressed purpose of this intensive program to educate excellent researchers and teachers who, after obtaining their degree, will mainly stay in academia.

Admissions
CGS admits up to 12 fellows a year. Students are admitted by the Board of CGS based on their grades, expertise and availability of a potential supervisor.
