Graduate Programme und Information Infrastructure

The programme is designed for the PhD students of the CSMC and will host external PhD students from Germany and from abroad who will get a scholarship. The programme offers a structured doctoral training, and wishes to impart skills in interdisciplinary manuscript research including lectures on historical and comparative manuscript research as well as workshops on methodological issues. In addition, workshops teaching job-related skills are also offered.

Head of the Programme: Oliver Huck

The sub-project "data repository manuscript cultures" is planned to ensure the systematic control and long-term use of the project data. Extensive experience has been made with a central MyCoRe installation, which aims at avoiding decentralized and ineffective management of data within the sub-projects. The data repository for digital objects, including descriptive metadata, will be developed according to the requirements of the individual projects. The data repository will also offer the possibility of virtual collaborations and is intended as a central virtual platform for the scholarly community.
