Initiatives of doctoral students
Doctoral student initiatives can be very beneficial because they serve as a means of organizing various student activities, which can be a fun way of connecting with other doctoral students or meeting more, international colleagues in the field. It can also be of use to help organize or participate in unique events and get-togethers from which all other doctoral students can also benefit.
A lot of these initiatives can be funded by DoCS and are strongly encouraged because they also promote better inter-peer communication, team building, doctoral school engagement, as well as external efforts and recognition. If you have original ideas for initiatives, let us know your ideas and get in contact with the DoCS!
Funding requirements
- The doctoral student needs to be a member of the UniVie Doctoral School Computer Science DoCS and enrolled in the doctoral programme in the corresponding semester.
- A pending public presentation needs to be completed successfully before the costs are refunded.
- Pending doctoral thesis agreement and annual progress reports of the doctoral student need to be fully submitted to the SSC before the costs are refunded.
