Programme

Since 2011, the BGHS Research Retreat has taken place every autumn. All doctoral researchers who began their doctoral studies at the BGHS in the respective year are invited to attend.

The two-day Research Retreat is traditionally held outside Bielefeld University. It offers participants the opportunity to work together intensively and exchange ideas in an environment that fosters working in concentration and peace. The new BGHS members discuss their dissertation projects in small interdisciplinary groups, each supported by a professor, and thus experience the advantages of interdisciplinary work.

In addition to the discussion of their work, the Research Retreat also offers participants the opportunity to get to know each other. Furthermore, the doctoral representatives will introduce themselves to the new colleagues during the event.
