3rd edition of Doctoral Day: "How? Where? Why write a thesis?"

November 15, 2018, 2:00 p.m. - November 15, 2018, 6:30 p.m.

On Thursday, November 15, 2018, from 2:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m., the Doctoral College of the Grenoble Alpes University Community is hosting a half-day information session at the Galerie des Amphis on the Saint-Martin-d’Hères campus. The event is open to all students at the University of Savoie Mont Blanc who have completed at least three years of higher education, regardless of their field of study.

The goal of this afternoon of meetings is to promote doctoral studies among master’s students and engineering school students by providing them with information on how to pursue this path (choosing a thesis topic, selecting a host laboratory, securing funding, etc.), hear testimonials from PhD graduates, and meet with doctoral schools, research organizations, and companies offering thesis opportunities.
