Graduate Community

Leuphana Graduate School empowers its Master’s students and doctoral researchers to seek answers to life’s most challenging questions. We carry out this mission by creating spaces for inter­disciplinary inter­action.

Our community of scholars and researchers is proof of our success: We encourage you to read their individual stories and become part of our graduate community!

Dr. Felix Kortmann:

The doctorate at Leuphana University Lüneburg enabled me to build up a great deal of professional expertise in a subject area that I find technically very exciting and to be able to make a small contribution to research.

Dr. Liza Mattutat:

I chose Leuphana because the graduate program “Cultures of Critique” promised to make all of this possible: dealing with socio-critical discourses and working conditions that offer a lot of freedom.

Dr. Marie Weiß:

I did my doctorate in an international project in cooperation with Arizona State University (ASU) with three other doctoral students. The friendship and support, especially among the doctoral students, gave me joy and good friends who are still with me.

Cara-Julie Kather:

I was totally convinced by the idea of combining my Master's studies and the doctorate. On the one hand, this makes the transition from the Masters to the doctorate much easier and smoother. On the other hand, you have more time for the doctorate overall, a secure and clear perspective for what follows the graduation.

Lloyd Kwambana:

I chose Leuphana because of its reputation and critical relevance to my PhD study. Leuphana’s commitment, values and integrity were at the core of my consideration.

Niklas Werthschulte:

For me, the interlinking of science and professional practice is a huge advantage, as I deal with sustainability reporting both scientifically and practically. I'm not only familiar with the theoretical level, but also know about the practical problems our clients face.
