PhD track: Academic career

The aim of this class is to help/orientate students with their master thesis and more generally to prepare them to an academic career. The class is divided into two parts.

We want to present to students the academic system (research system (in particular in France), the career opportunities in the academics, the funding possibilities, etc.) and provide them some methodological tools to write their master thesis (how to make a literature review, write an abstract, an introduction, etc.).

Additionally, students will present their master thesis project to the classroom. Each student will be paired with another student (from the other discipline if possible) and students will have to criticize, advise, etc. each other. Additionally, students will have to provide a CV and a cover letter as if they were applying for a PhD grant. The goal is to help students for their master thesis and to train them in the perspective of a PhD application.
