Arpita Sinha Doctoral candidate HFT Stuttgart

As I am very close to the nature I mean that as nature, greenery or trees grow, I wish my Phd and my career also grows with it. Like the small plants on my desk, I wish my career blooms as the plant grows and by the end of my Phd I wish to see this small plant into a full grown up green plant which will also reflect my career growth.

Qualification concept for the doctorate

Stuttgart University of Applied Sciences combines individual research with support and qualification opportunities for its doctoral candidates. In cooperation with the doctoral candidates and professors, the Graduate School has developed a qualification concept with three focal points for the further training of doctoral candidates.

1

Qualification program HFT und Promotionsverband BW

2

Colloquium und Workshops

3

Thesis Committee

  1. At least three specialist or interdisciplinary seminars must be attended as part of a doctorate with the Promotionsverband Baden-Württemberg. You can choose from a qualification program offered by the Graduate School of the Stuttgart University of Applied Sciences (currently under construction), the Promotionsverband itself (BW-CAR DEEP Doctoral Empowering Excellence Program) or other qualification offers that are useful for your doctoral project.
  2. In specialist colloquia of the Stuttgart University of Applied Sciences' research groups or the Promotionsverband Baden-Württemberg as well as doctoral workshops organized by the Graduate School, students are offered the opportunity to present and discuss their own research project and to network with other doctoral candidates and knowledge carriers at the university.
  3. The Thesis Committee is an annual formal event attended by the first and second supervisors and the Graduate School. At this "status meeting", you provide information about your current research status and receive professional and personal feedback.

 

In addition, Stuttgart University of Applied Sciences and the Graduate School encourage you to attend national and international conferences and organize summer schools.
