PhD-Candidates
PhD-candidates holding a German law degree (First Law Exam – Erste Juristische Prüfung) should visit the German language version of this website (“Promotion”).
Candidates who do not hold a German law degree can only be accepted for supervision as PhD-candidates by Professor Bachmann if they:
- have obtained a Master-degree from Humboldt-University Law School (with distinction), and
- have written a Master thesis supervised by Professor Bachmann (marked with “good” or “very good”)
- have submitted a convincing (preferably comparative) exposé for a dissertation in the field of corporate law
- are willing and able to write in German.
Applications by candidates who do not fulfill these conditions will not be recognized.
Please note that Professor Bachmann can only accept a limited number of PhD-candidates. Therefore, even if you fulfill all the conditions listed above, supervision by Professor Bachmann cannot be guaranteed.
