Applying to the Bonn-Cologne Graduate School

With a Bachelor degree in Physics or equivalent, you can join the BCGS for a Master course and subsequently a PhD. Students already holding a Master's degree can join directly for the PhD stage. In either case you need to make a decision whether to apply for the Master's/PhD at the University of Bonn or at the University of Cologne, a decision which depends on your research interests, see BCGS research.

Lecture courses at both universities are open to BCGS members and you can switch universities between the Master's and the PhD. Within the BCGS Scholarship Program, the BCGS offers full scholarships for about 20 Master students per year. For details, please visit the BCGS Scholarship Program section.
