What is the IRTG?
The Integrated Research Training Group is part of the CRC 1242 and is co-hosted by Marika Schleberger and Jürgen König. The IRTG supports the CRC in qualifying the doctoral students for the research program and for a later career in academia, industry, and administration. It offers doctoral students a comprehensive training program in fundamental sciences and key skills.

Ph.D. Spokespersons
The over 40 Ph.D. students are represented by five Ph.D. spokespersons that are elected by the Ph.D.'s annually on the Ph.D. Retreat. Together with the CRC1242 office, they organize the annual Ph.D. Retreat, group-building activities, or small presents in Easter and Christmas time.
Ph.D. Retreat 2022
This year, the annual Ph.D. retreat will take place in Schloss Buchenau from 20.-23.06.
It will cover different areas over all stages of the Ph.D. From all-day applicable workshops like "Voice and Speech" and "Work-Life-Sleep-Balance" to workshops for the life after the Ph.D. like "Job Search - Perspectives after the Ph.D." and "Leadership Skills".
