Doctoral students receive a high level of supervision and support at the DLR institutes. In addition, DLR offers its approximately 800 doctoral candidates a very special service: the DLR_Graduate_Program is a high-quality qualification and support program designed specifically for doctoral candidates at DLR. The three-year voluntary program provides doctoral students with key interdisciplinary qualifications - from project management to scientific publishing and presentation skills, third-party funding acquisition and other important core competencies. The knowledge and skills can be used efficiently during the doctoral phase and should also help with further career planning.

The doctoral phase can be followed by further career steps such as leading junior research groups at DLR institutes or postings abroad. Mentoring programs and talent development measures are also offered at DLR.
