Workshop: How to do Your PhD Successfully

In Germany, 30-50 % of all PhD-students do not finish their doctoral theses. There are many reasons for that, e.g. poor time- and self-management, miscommunication with your supervisor or not balancing your work and free time properly. We will tackle many challenges you might come across on your way to your degree and provide you with methods and strategies for a less stressful study experience. In this workshop, you will learn how to focus on finishing your PhD, right from the beginning.
