The aim of the project is to provide knowledge, skills, and network opportunities to doctoral students in Ukraine, helping them to reach international research standards and creating a network for future cooperation.
With Ukraine coming closer to the EU, there is a distinct need to align, integrate and prepare the education frameworks and systems with European education standards, particularly the European Research Area. Limiting the brain drain from the country, especially amongst young researchers is also key.
Through the project, Ukrainian PhD students will be given opportunities not only to receive knowledge about research methodology, thesis writing, and other relevant skills but will be consulted by external experts on the topic of their research. Moreover, the training will be organised together with international PhD students to broaden their cooperation opportunities.
