This course is organized as a series of workshops designed to equip PhD candidates with the important knowledge and skills required to build an academic career. Each workshop targets various aspects that become relevant at a different phase of the PhD trajectory. The first workshop focuses on managing the PhD research project. Workshop 2 attends to academic networking and Workshop 3 focuses on the publication process. Workshop 4 prepares the PhD candidate for the job market.
The course consists of 4 workshop sessions (3-4 hours each) distributed throughout the academic year (September – July). Each workshop will entail an interactive panel with experienced faculty members from different ABRI tracks. Before each workshop module, course participants will complete preparation assignments. Each module will be concluded by a brief reflection report.
Course participants are not expected to complete all course modules within one year. PhD candidates can join the various workshop modules at different stages of their trajectory, i.e., when the offered content will be most relevant.
