  • Statement by the Minister of Science, Research and the Arts in the State of Baden-Württemberg Professor Dr. Peter Frankenberg
    6WDWHPHQW by the Minister of Science, Research and the Arts in the State of Baden-Württemberg Professor Dr. Peter Frankenberg on the $QQRXQFHPHQWRIWKH)LUVW5HVXOWVXQGHUWKH ([FHOOHQFH,QLWLDWLYH Check against delivery Embargo: 13 October 2006, 3:30 pm Ladies and gentlemen, o As has been mentioned before, “graduate schools” are one of the pillars of the Excellence Initiative programme. Together with “clusters of excellence”, they are also the prerequisite for funding in the third line of the programme — “institutional strategies”. o Excellent research requires excellent minds. In this regard graduate schools serve as building blocks for the future with long-term impacts. They enable outstanding doctoral students to be trained into excellent scientists and researchers, with ties to Germany. They help lay the cornerstone for the future excellence of German research. o We consider graduate schools to be instrumental in helping universities enhance their profiles over the long term and creating top-level academic institutions in Germany that can hold their own internationally. Within broad areas of expertise, graduate schools offer the best environments for doctoral students, and as internationally prominent and integrative institutions, they promote these students’ identification with their respective universities. o Competition in the Excellence Initiative has led to a broad search for innovative ideas on what constitutes good graduate training, and this has had a positive impact outside the programme as well. o You may wonder what the difference is between these new graduate schools and the traditional DFG-funded Research Training Groups. o A graduate school is supposed to enhance a university’s focus by promoting young researchers, thus adding academic and structural value to the university and its relevant departments.
