Organisers


Summer semester: Talks


Winter semester: PhD Away Days

Aim

The PhD seminar is replaced once per year by the « PhD Away Days », i.e. a weekend during which the PhD candidates present their research area or related topics to their fellow PhD students hence strengthening their presentation skills and socialise with the other PhD candidates. How to organise the mathematical content (GMS style talks, mini courses etc.) and the journey and corresponding activities varies depending on the organising PhD representative(s).

Dates and Location

The PhD Away Days 2019 took place in Bordeaux, France from October 19 to October 21, 2019. The presentations were assessed by Mikołaj KASPRZAK and George KERCHEV and James THOMPSON.
