The Saarbrücken Graduate School of Computer Science is funded by the German Excellence Initiative and comprises all doctoral education and training in computer science at Saarland University in collaboration with 7 internationally recognized research institutes on campus. We are:

- Department of Computer Science, Saarland University
- Max Planck Institute for Informatics (MPII)
- Max Planck Institute for Software Systems (MPI-SWS)
- German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI)
- Intel Visual Computing Institute (IVCI)

- Center for Bioinformatics (CBI)
- Center for IT Security, Privacy and Accountability (CISPA)

Over 70 possible PhD supervisors along with an additional 120 post-doc researchers from all over the world provide a broad spectrum of research topics covering almost all of computer science. Candidates need not have settled on a research topic or already have a supervisor in order to join the program. More than half of our graduate students come from outside Germany.

We invite applications for admission to our program with full scholarship funding (at least 800 € per month) during the preparatory phase and full financial support in the dissertation phase.
