Welcome to BIGSAS

NEWS:

The Bayreuth International Graduate School of African Studies (BIGSAS) is funded by the German Research Foundation as part of the Excellence Initiative since 2007. In the focus of this unique structure of creative and innovative training are almost 100 Junior Fellows from 27 African and European countries. The PhD students profit from a clearly structured, academic and career-oriented training as well as a genuine expertise in the African studies which has increased continuously since the foundation of the University of Bayreuth. The international network with Partner Universities on the African continent creates even more so excellent conditions for the research of our Junior Fellows.
