Description:

The industrial PhD is carried out within a company where the PhD student has a contract while developing his or her doctoral thesis. The thesis, therefore, is included in a collaboration agreement between the university and the company.

In order to explain the details of this type of doctoral programme, the UAB Doctoral School is organising an information session aimed at first-year master's or PhD students, master's and PhD coordinators and companies that may be interested.

During the session, the requirements and deadlines to develop an industrial PhD will be explained and the grants that the Government of Catalonia offers within its Industrial Doctorates Plan will be presented. There will also be the participation of the UAB Parc de Recerca, which will detail the services they offer around the industrial PhD programme.

The session will be in Catalan and can be followed by Teams. To attend the session, it is necessary to register through this link.
