The Giessen Graduate School for Humanities is a pivotal part of Justus Liebig University Giessen (JLU) founded with the goal of improving the education of doctoral students in the area of cultural studies. The GGK assists PhD students enrolled in JLU's three areas of cultural studies specialization (Social Sciences and Cultural Studies; History and Cultural Studies; Language, Literature, Culture) by organising relevant events and by supporting the concrete projects within the framework of the thematically organized sections and working groups.
