Find out how the TUM Graduate School supports both doctoral and master's students considering a doctorate with events for first-generation academics in the TUM Community.

First or first in the family to study or do a doctorate? Statistics show that this is by no means a matter of course. First Generation Academics are less likely to go to university after graduating from high school - and their share is even lower until the doctoral phase.

First Generation Academics from the TUM Community have already overcome many hurdles and paved their own personal path. With our event format, we want to support you further, talk about possible challenges during the doctorate and provide tools on how to overcome them. The event offers short inputs on the statistical dimension, practical tips and time for exchange. In addition, successful First Generation Academics will share their experiences.
