Doctoral training
As part of your doctoral training, you have to take some courses, most of which are organized in Leuven. Yet, as this is quite time-consuming for researchers working on other campuses, it is an ongoing effort to organize more courses in Kortrijk. You can find and register for these courses on the page research courses, info sessions & training @ Kulak and campus Bruges.
Examples of courses (previously/currently) organized for PhDs in Kortrijk/Bruges:
- Scientific Integrity (video-conferencing)
- Academic Writing
- Doing a job interview
- Managing your PhD
- Insight in your strengths and ambitions
- Interpersonal skills
A list of all courses organized in Leuven and other campuses, both specifically for PhD students and general skills can be found via these channels:
- KU Loket – Personnel – Staff training – Courses and registration.
- You can also check the website of your doctoral school for research-specific workshops and seminars.
- Skills training for researchers-brochure (KU Leuven)
