PhD "Tutorial Assignation" Call

Third-year PhD students from the two Doctoral Schools associated to TULIP-GS, and belonging to one of the six TULIP laboratories, will have the opportunity to apply to a TULIP-GS PhD Tutorial Assignation.

Objective: Allow PhD students from the SEVAB and ED305 doctoral schools, working in one of the 6 TULIP laboratories, to have a first tutoring experience by joining one of the two eligible 2024 Junior Lab projects of the Master in Functional Biology and Ecology. PhD students will join a team of Junior Lab scientific tutors for a five-month assignment (average of 6 hours of work per month), starting at the end of January 2024. At the end, each tutor assignment will lead to the validation of 30h of training by the SEVAB or ED305 doctoral schools. The PhD tutors will contribute, in collaboration with the scientific tutors, to the theoretical and practical guidance of the Master students involved in the Junior Lab projects. A brief description of the four Junior Lab projects is attached to this document.
