Central University POLICY CLAIMS

In cooperation with the VMPV (Association of Central German Doctoral Councils) we compiled a list of central university policy requirements. Those are:

Active promotion of equality
Commitment of supervision agreements at the beginning of a doctorate
Anchoring doctoral candidates in higher education acts as representatives for doctoral candidates
Introduction of a doctoral student status as a separate status group in the higher education act
Support for scholarship holders during parental and nursing care
Increase in university base funding
Increase in permanent positions for non-professorial teching staff at university
Increase in permanent positions at third-party funded projects

Supporting doctoral councils: TU Dresden, TU Bergakademie Freiberg, Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena, Universität Leipzig, Bauhaus-Universität Weimar

Questionnaire for Federal state Elections

In May 2019, the Verbund Mitteldeutscher Promovierendenvertretungen (VMPV) - in which the DDocs are a member - has sent a list of questions to all parties which currently represent the Saxony state parliament. The questions were asked regarding the upcoming elections on 01.09.2019. In addition to general topics of higher education policy, the catalog mainly addresses issues that directly address the framework conditions for doctoral students and working conditions for doctoral students at Saxon universities.

The questionnaire can be found here:
