The aim of doctoral training is to bring doctoral graduates to an advanced level of creative and independent thinking and action. As such, the doctoral student prepares for a career in frontier research and education or for high-level roles in professional sectors where deep rigorous analysis is required. To realise this purpose, doctoral training focuses on personal development in four complementary domains:
1. Professional expertise: knowledge of the discipline, analytic and synthetic mind set, creativity, thinking-out-of-the-box attitude;
2. Research management: project management and financing, respecting professional and ethical standards;
3. Personal effectiveness: self management, time management, motivation, problem solving, career planning;
4. Impact and influence: collaboration, communication, networking, leadership.
About this course
Although four years of PhD research may seem like a long period of time, with postdoctoral life far off on the horizon, there will be a moment - probably sooner than expected - when you start thinking about the next step in your career.
- Will you pursue a research career in academia or would you prefer moving into the private or public sector?
- Do you want to go abroad or not?
- Will you continue working in the same field or are you looking to diversify into another domain?
