Get your PhD back on track
A PhD course where we share experiences, work with hands-on tools and develop a PhD strategy suited for you
Target group: The target group of this course is PhD students who are at least one year into their PhD and feel that they in some way have got off the track. Maybe you are behind your PhD plan, have lost your motivation, have problems getting writing done or maybe the collaboration with your supervisors(s) or other collaborators is problematic.
Aim: This is a chance to get back on track, find your motivation and focus and make a realistic plan to deliver within time. After the course, you have a chance to take part in a peer-group where you support each other in the continuous planning and writing processes.
Content: The course runs over 3 months and consists of 4 thematised 3-hour group sessions. There is a possibility to meet in peer-groups between the organised meetings. It is possible to add individual coaching sessions as a part of the course.
Themes:
- Planning, focus and priorities – get hold of your time and become a realistic planner, what will you stop doing and new habits
- Motivation – reconnect to your initial motivation – what got you started in the first place?
