Alumni Networks

The Graduate Center KW aims to maintain and strengthen relationships with alumni of Paderborn University. The GKW alumni network is established in several ways:

Regular events with scholars who have earned their PhDs in the Arts and Humanities and who speak about their career paths outside of academia
An alumni database on KOMO, where you can find profiles of our alumni featuring their job experience as well as their contact details.
Events such as get-togethers for graduates and alumni with PhDs

Join the network as a doctoral candidate/postdoc: Are you a doctoral student or postdoc at the Faculty of Arts and Humanities and would like to get in touch with alumni with PhDs?

Join the network as an alumni: Are you an alumni with a PhD of the Faculty of Arts and Humanities and would like to join the alumni network?
