- Choose a thesis topic proposed by a laboratory (research contract, etc.)
- Propose a thesis topic to a laboratory
Preparing your project
Making an informed choice
To be considered for a doctorate, you must hold a French research Master's degree (as of October 1 of the year of the competition) or an equivalent diploma.
It's important to get the facts before making a three-year commitment, or foregoing a doctorate out of sheer ignorance.
Pour faire un choix éclairé, il est essentiel de:
- Comprendre la spécificité et l’intérêt d’une formation par la recherche.
- Anticiper les difficultés pour éviter les abandons et profiter au maximum des atouts de la formation doctorale.
- Être un véritable acteur de votre avenir professionnel.
Vous pouvez vous adresser au directeur ou directrice de l’école SIE (dir.edsie@univ-smb.fr) ou aux laboratoires qui pourront répondre à vos questions.
There are also associations that can help you with this, by answering your questions or offering avant-thèse training courses.
The Bernard Gregory Association, for example, offers an academics avant-thèse.
