BIGSSS Academic Program

About BIGSSS:


 The Bremen International Graduate School of Social Sciences (BIGSSS) is one of Germany’s leading schools of doctoral training in the social sciences. Having started with just a handful of fellows in 2002, our school hosts more than 70 international PhD fellows today. So, if you are a member of this growing BIGSSS community: good to see you! Should you 'meet' us for the very first time: we hope that this website will help you in getting to know more about both BIGSSS and its academic mission.

 BIGSSS integrates excellent areas of graduate education and research at the University of Bremen and Jacobs University into a synergetic inter-university institution designed to be an internationally competitive model of graduate education.

  • Global Governance and Regional Integration 
  • Welfare State, Inequality, and Quality of Life 
  • Changing Lives in Changing Socio-Cultural Contexts

They take part in the BIGSSS curriculum with a reduced work load and complete several PhD Milestones.
