Our Network
Access to the Hamburg Research Academy (HRA) and its services is regulated through institutional membership or associate membership.
Membership is open to all Hamburg-based higher education institutions with the right to confer doctoral degrees, as well as to those without this right, provided they supervise doctoral projects in cooperation with degree-awarding institutions in Hamburg. Users at member institutions and associated non-university research institutions are eligible to access the full range of HRA services.

Who can use HRA services?
If you are a doctoral researcher, postdoc, junior professor, or a supervisor, you can use Hamburg Research Academy services as long as:
- your higher education institution is a member;
- your non-university research institution is an associated member;
- you are enrolled at one of the member institutions and have been admitted to doctoral studies; or
- you are employed or in a comparable position with external funding in one of the member institutions or associated member institutions.
If you are interested in a doctorate, you can use services that are specifically aimed at prospective doctoral researchers.
