PhD Carousel (Friday 25 April 2025)

Every year, Wageningen Graduate Schools (WGS) organises a one-day event for PhD candidates consisting of a carousel of 4 sessions with 6 workshops per session. The learning target of the WUR PhD is to become an independent practitioner of science, who is able to integrate the research within the framework of their scientific discipline and against the background of a broader scientific area, to place the research aims and research results in a societal context, and postulate concisely worded propositions in scientific and societal areas. Based on this vision, WGS created a model that focuses on skills development including five themes: Academic professional skills, Value for Society, Professional attitude, Academic Insights and Thinking and Career perspectives. The 1.5-hour workshops are divided into these themes and deal with elements important for PhDs and the PhD track. Workshops are either stand-alone workshops or teasers that give a taste of more elaborate courses and workshops organised by Wageningen Graduate Schools.
