Teaming Up. Peer coaching for doctoral researchers

Das Format wird aktuell in 2024 nicht angeboten. Eine Neuauflage ist für 2025 geplant.

Team up!

Writing a dissertation doesn't need to be a lonely enterprise! Sure, expectations from others and oneself are high and the pressures of reality do not make it any easier. Being a doctoral candidate often means having to navigate through a landscape of demands of one’s own field, of doctoral advisers, and of colleagues. A team will help you gain a better perspective so you can stick to your own compass. Meeting on a regular basis can give you the continuity, clarity, and support to make the decisions that your dissertation needs.

Doctoral candidates also have to engage in career-relevant networks, especially if they want to pursue a life outside academia. In this situation, the advice and encouragement of others who know exactly what kind of situation you are in can be a great motivation.

This is why peer groups are a great way to find support and advice, not only while preparing your dissertation, but also in planning your future career.
