In combination of research and teaching, new Masters, PhD, and habilitation theses emerge permanently. The five Institutes of the Centre are responsible for teaching in the relevant disciplines. The foundation of the Centre has brought benefits for students regarding their education. From the beginning of their education, they gain attention to the importance of interdisciplinary work especially regarding to the scope of marine and climate science. Besides others, this is done by publication of a list of annotated lectures of all institutes of the Centre as well as by announcement of colloquia and seminars.
Students have many chances to participate in actual research and to earn money in funded projects.
Students participate in almost all experiments of the projects of the Centre and they gain practical experience in the frame of the curriculum. The graduate programme is mainly financed by funding. During the period of this report 61 theses of diploma and 50 theses for PhD have been finished within the fields of the institutions of the Centre overall.
