Who We Are

[Translate to English:] Tamara Imboden

“The Doctoral Program is a great way to integrate into the University of Basel’s Literary Studies community. Not only is their financial support invaluable, they also offer us PhD students the chance to develop our ideas in conversation with peers of all philologies through exciting academic and social events.”

Tamara Imboden
Doctoral student, Anglophone Literary and Cultural Studies

Judith Müller

“The Doctoral Program gave me a connection to literary studies which, in my subject, is often lacking at small institutes in German-speaking countries. The interphilological orientation promised openness even to more exotic subjects such as Hebrew literature and at the same time corresponded to my interdisciplinary interests.”

Dr. Judith Müller
Alumna, Jewish Studies

Philipp Schweighauser, Steering Committee

“The Doctoral Program offers many advantages. What I find most important are the many networking opportunities, for example at the annual retreats. Another big plus is the funding opportunities for guest lectures, workshops and courses offered by members.”
