Graduate Programme for Transcultural Studies (GPTS)

About

The Graduate Programme for Transcultural Studies (GPTS) is a three-year doctoral programme within the interdisciplinary research environment of the Heidelberg Centre for Transcultural Studies (HCTS) at Heidelberg University. The GPTS combines the German model of highly individualised doctoral studies and a system of guided courses and workshops to support young scholars in all aspects of this stage of their academic careers. Doctoral students become part of a vibrant community of international scholars and are trained in transcultural theories, interdisciplinary approaches, and methods from the participating disciplines. These include anthropology, archaeology, art history, Chinese studies, history, Islamic studies, Japanese studies, literary studies, political science, religious studies, and South Asian Studies.
