Postgraduate Network
The postgraduate network is composed of those UA Ruhr PhD candidates and postdocs who examine transformation processes in metropolitan areas and foster inter- and transdisciplinary exchange. The periodic gatherings are cooperatively arranged by our team of organisers and the KoMet coordination office.
