The doctoral candidates’ representatives represent the interests of doctoral candidates at FAU. They provide doctoral candidates with individual advice and support during their doctoral degree. Every year, one spokesperson and one deputy is elected at each faculty to represent all admitted doctoral candidates. The elected doctoral candidates from all five faculties form the Doctoral Candidates’ Representatives Governing Body (Promovierendenkonvent).
