IMISCOE PhD Day 2023

06 February 2023

The IMISCOE PhD Network Board invites PhD students to participate in this year's PhD Day. The theme of the event is 'The importance of mental health during the PhD journey'. During the event, which will take place on 17 February from 13:00 to 16:30 CET, participants, together with invited guests will explore how the topic of mental health is treated and positioned within the structure of the academy and consider what challenges PhD students face and how these can be addressed.

The event consists of several parts: an introduction on the importance of mental health, a subgroup discussion, a plenary session with conclusions from the internal discussions, a presentation of the IMISCOE structure and a closing lecture on the organisation of psychological support at universities.

The event takes place on the Webex platform. To register for the event please fill in the form below:
