Student4Student Summerschool

This is meant to be a space to share struggles and experiences about your life as a PhD student. We believe that people in all stages of their PhD can benefit from an exchange.

Over the course of the week, we would like to hear from you:

• What struggles do you face during your PhD?
• What do you enjoy in your PhD?
• What was your best experience so far?
• Want advice would you give someone starting a PhD?
• Would you change anything about how you approached your PhD?

While we are all PhD students, everyone of us is on a unique journeys and are here at different stages. The PhD experience is different for different countries and research fields. We all bring unique perspectives and can benefit from learning from each other. To this end, we would like to create a safe environment that gives everyone the opportunity to share.

This is meant to be a workshop for all participants of the summer school, independent of the Focus Groups. The idea is to gather everyones stories and experiences over the course of the week and have a informal get together one of the last evenings to share and discuss about the topics that came up.
