iGRAD is the first point of contact for all questions and issues related to the education of early stage researchers at the MNF. It is not always clear with whom doctoral researchers, their research supervisors, postdoctoral researchers, or research coordinators of structured qualification programs should establish contact. iGRAD therefore provides information and counselling about specific topics and is also networked with relevant departments and advisory centres at the HHU. This makes it possible to target the right office for specific information whenever necessary.
