Doing a doctorate: yes or no? This interdisciplinary intensive workshop is aimed at master's students and graduates who would like to pursue a doctorate at an institution within the BUA network (HU, TU, FU Berlin & Charité) or who are currently in the decision-making phase. For technical reasons, only BUA members can currently register via the booking platform. All others should register by emailing hgs-workshops@hu-berlin.de. In this intensive workshop, you will reflect on questions such as “What do I want?”, “Do I really want to pursue a doctorate?” and “How can I tackle and persevere with this major project?”. The one-day seminar will help you clarify your personal attitude toward your dissertation project and make statements about its feasibility. You will thus develop a sound basis for deciding for or against a dissertation.
