Starting an ambitious project like a PhD requires planning, time management, work discipline and a clear mind around goals, expectations, and respective roles between the PhD candidate and the supervisor.

In this half-day workshop, we cover the following topics through short presentations and discussion:

• The key stages of a doctorate at UNIL and the Code of Practice for the Doctorate.
• The rights and obligations of doctoral candidates and their supervisors, and the ways in which we can establish effective and adapted communication.
• The challenges doctoral candidates can encounter, and how to deal with them.
• Methods for time and task management.
• Professional paths and futures for doctoral holders (careers within and beyond academia).
