This year we look back on 10 years of the Herzog-Ernst-Scholarship-Programme, with about 200 projects funded since 2004. What happened to you since then? Where do you live and work now? Do you still remember your stay here in Gotha?
We would like to invite you warmly to visit Gotha again, to meet old friends and to strengthen the network of Alumnae: at the first Alumni meeting of the Herzog-Ernst-Grants, on 23rd and 24th October 2013. That’s what we have prepared for you:

The Merian Thyssen Fellowship in Gotha Erfurt was very important for my research and publications. I remember the summer most fondly. It was very productive working in Gotha
