Training courses
The doctoral school offers several types of training courses which aim to deepen the doctoral student's training and prepare him/her for his/her career after the thesis. Doctoral students must complete 100 hours of training during the preparation of the thesis, with the following breakdown:
40 hours as part of cross-disciplinary training (site doctoral college, UBL doctoral school, including compulsory training in research ethics and scientific integrity)
60 hours as part of the training provided by the doctoral school and by the research units on which the doctoral school is based. Certain disciplinary training may give rise to an equivalence, to be requested via Améthis upon justification.
Full-time salaried doctoral students (excluding doctoral contracts) may request a waiver of half of the hours. To do so, the doctoral student must send a handwritten request to the director or deputy director of the Doctoral School of his or her institution, including the opinion of the thesis director and a justification for this request.
The full table of credits is appended to the internal regulations of the ED.
