The doctoral programs of the Graduate School of the Arts and Humanities (GSAH) make possible an outstanding inter- and transdisciplinary academic education, offering qualification for conducting research-related work both in academic and non-academic fields. At the center stands the writing of a qualitatively excellent doctoral thesis. The GSAH comprises four doctoral programs.

At the latest after the defense of the dissertation the question arises: Publish, but how?
The Open Science Team of the University Library has summarized the most important information in a brief information.
The document is in German.
Taking the Humanities on the Road (THoR) is an Ideas-and-Actions-Lab at the Walter Benjamin Kolleg Bern to crowdsource ideas and actions that showcase the vitality and innovative potential of the humanities at the University of Bern, Switzerland, and beyond. The initiative aims at establishing a discussion of concrete ways to build bridges between academia and the public, individual research and participation, analytical and engaged scholarship. THoR is a bottom up working group. We invite scholars (from all disciplines, at all levels), as well as artists, teachers, activists, bloggers, para-academics, and community organizers etc., who are passionate about engaged scholarship to participate.

The WBKolleg has a small reference library in the research pool.

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation we have decided to postpone our Summer School “Materialities & Subjectivities. Accounting for Complicated and Complicating Entanglements in the Humanities” to 2021.
We will host the event next year from Monday, September 6 – Friday, September 10, 2021 on the same topic and with the same guest lecturers!
