This event will feature the overall Horizon Europe programme and discuss the MSCA Doctoral Networks in more details. Tune in to hear from expert speakers and evaluators, and ask your questions via Zoom or in person at the Europa House, Tokyo.
The objective of Doctoral Networks is to implement doctoral programmes by partnerships of organisations from different sectors across Europe and beyond to train highly skilled doctoral candidates, stimulate their creativity, enhance their innovation capacities and boost their employability in the long-term.
Doctoral Networks implement doctoral programmes via partnerships: universities, research institutions and infrastructures, businesses including SMEs, and other socio-economic actors from different countries across Europe and beyond.
Besides standard Doctoral Networks, incentives have been introduced to promote two specific types of doctorates, as well.
Industrial Doctorates. PhD candidates who wish develop their skills and step outside academia, in particular in industry and business.
Joint Doctorates. Highly integrated type of international, inter-sectoral and interdisciplinary collaboration in doctoral training leading to a joint doctoral degree or multiple doctoral degrees awarded by the participating institutions.
