Please note: After the admission as a doctoral candidate at your faculty, you have to matriculate at the University.

Step 1: Data collection for prospective doctoral candidates (DOC 501)

Background: Since the amendment of the law concerning higher education statistics by the German Bundestag (Federal Parliament) in 2016, all state institutions of higher education are obliged to collect and process specific data about doctoral candidates. For this reason, the prospective doctoral candidate's data must be collected before he/she can apply for admission as a doctoral candidate. This data collection (DOC 501) is necessary in order to be able to fulfil the matriculation obligation in the Service Center Study, to which you are obliged after you are admitted as a doctoral candidate.

Information for employees: For data protection reasons, certain personal data such as birthplace or postal address of employees are not imported automatically to HISinOne from the personnel management systems. For this reason, employees are automatically requested to complete the personal data necessary for the administration of the doctoral procedure before data collection.

Please follow these steps:

  • Log into HISinOne.
  • Click on the tab 'Studies offered' and choose 'Doctorate'.
  • Choose 'Request of data collection for prospective doctoral candidates (DOC 501)' and fill in the form.
  • Do not forget to save!
  • Please upload the relevant documents by opening the application again (pencil icon).
  • Click Save again.

Helpful Information for filling in the form: The list of subjects to enter your previous studies is only available in German. Please click here for a list of translations: faecherschluessel_englisch.pdf. If you still cannot find the subject you studied before, choose the most similar one.

Step 2: Application for admission at the responsible faculty

To submit your application as a doctoral canditate, please contact the Faculty of Law or the Faculty of Medicine directly.

Preparation if your UniAccount is no longer active: Apply for a new account

To apply for a new account for HISinOne and Docata, please send an e-mail to cmp@rz.uni-freiburg.de and include the following information:

  • Subject of the e-mail: New Account Docata

You will promptly receive an e-mail with information about your temporarily valid UniAccount, which you can use to log into both HISinOne and Docata.

Preparation if you do not have an UniAccount: How to complete the self-registration

Important notes:

  • The self-registration as a person is only required if you do not have an UniAccount.
  • It serves as a preparation for the next steps, so that the system recognizes you as a person.
  • If you are an employee at the university and do not have a UniAccount yet, please follow these instructions.
