GRITIM-UPF organises PhD Working Sessions on a trimestral basis for the GRITIM PhD students to present and exchange comments on the essence of their ongoing research. In addition there will be interaction between PhD candidates and GRITIM senior researchers.
The aim of the PhD Working Sessions is to create a shared setting in which students can talk about their work in progress and garner feedback from fellow students and supervisors within GRITIM. Interested students will participate with an extended abstract (approx. 1.000 words indicating current stage in the project, research question, difficulties, methodology), which will be object of discussion during the sessions.

For further information, contact Juan Carlos Triviño ([email protected]).

From December 2013, GRITIM-UPF PhD working sessions became GRITIM-UPF Research in progress sessions
