The BGHS
Doctoral Representatives
Doctoral Representatives are there for the concerns of the young researchers. Since the BGHS lays a great emphasis on its members' participation, the doctoral researchers choose their representatives among themselves. These are a Doctoral Researcher in history and a Doctoral Researcher in sociology and two deputy representatives.
