Inter-university Doctoral Course: What does it mean to be a researcher in 21st century academia?

Dear (post)doctoral researchers and other university staff members,

We are proud to present the 8th edition of the interuniversity course on what it means to be a researcher in 21st century academia. This edition will take place on 6, 12 and 13 May 2022.

In recent years, numerous scholars and university personnel have expressed concerns about the changing professional environment in which they work. In the context of a global pandemic, these concerns have by no means diminished. During this course, we want to make researchers more aware of the context in which they find themselves, and encourage them to play an active role in the development of contemporary academia.

A detailed program and more information can be found on the course website

PhD students can obtain credits from the doctoral training programs of UGent, UAntwerp, VUB, KU Leuven and UCLouvain, but we also welcome postdoctoral researchers and other university staff. 

Feel free to spread the message and hopefully see you soon!
