Workshop goal
This workshop will lay the foundations for the development of two doctoral training programmes within the Una Europa alliance.
- A Doctoral Interdisciplinary Methods Training (DIMT), first for the fields of social sciences, humanities and law and later for the natural sciences. The course will train PhD candidates and their supervisors, and will allow them to move between different universities in the Una Europa alliance.
- An interdisciplinary doctoral training programme with “Europe and the World” as a thematic focus. It will focus on best practices in supervision and on training PhD candidates working on topics related to Europe and the World.
