We are glad that the BGHS was able to accompany you during the doctoral phase!

And then there is some good news on our own behalf: Clara Buitrago, who has been driving the internationalisation of the BGHS for four years, has been permanently employed since July 2024. She will continue to coordinate the internationalisation efforts of the BGHS and take on some tasks in the office, e.g. checking study requirements and preparing transcripts. We are delighted that Clara will be staying with us for the long term!

We wish you a wonderful summer and a relaxing lecture-free period!
