The pre-Colloquium PhD Workshop provides an enjoyable opportunity for doctoral students to interact with and learn from fellow students and top scholars in our field. It also provides a springboard for successful academic careers by examining important issues such as publishing, reviewing, and collaborative research, among others.
Further, the workshop enables participants to approach their doctoral dissertations with renewed vigor by engaging in discussions on research design and novel methodologies with renowned scholars, and by reviewing their dissertation proposals with the help of others – fellow participants and senior scholars who work in the respective area of interest.
Finally, through the mix of European and international students as well as faculty members, participants gain exposure to similarities and differences across countries and continents in how academic processes work. This also enhances their understanding with regard to different career opportunities and career paths.
Please note that part of the workshop is organized in parallel tracks.
