Continued Funding for the German-Chinese Research Training Group
DFG grants a further four and one-half years of funding
The Research Training Group Stochastics and Real World Models, a joint project involving academics from Bielefeld University and colleagues from the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing, has been granted an immediate four and one-half years of further financial support from the German Research Foundation (DFG).
The core of the project is the joint training of young researchers within the framework of a structured doctoral degree programme. Starting this autumn, 15 doctoral students in Bielefeld and 20–25 in Beijing will receive joint training in stochastics and its applications, and their doctoral theses will be supervised jointly by Chinese and German academics. Up to the present, more than 30 young researchers have completed their doctorates within the framework of this German-Chinese exchange programme. Many of them are now working on their further academic careers in either Europe or China.
