Re-Invitation Programme
Associated to the PhD Programme is a Re-Invitation Programme which
allows former PhD students to come to Hohenheim for a period of 3
months every third year since they have left Hohenheim University.
This part of the programme aims to offer alumni a continuous co-
operation after their PhD and to publish in co-operation with
Hohenheim staff.
In the years 2007 to 2010 28 alumni made use of this with the result
of publication of 8 books and 12 reviewed articles in Journals and
books. The costs have been covered mainly by DAAD but also by
other institutions like Humboldt Foundation.
