The Técnico Doctoral School was presented on 4 November at the opening of the 10th edition of PhD Open Days – an annual event for doctoral students. This new structure brings together Técnico’s 31 doctoral programmes, implements a training programme in transversal skills, offers a Fast Track programme for entry into the 3rd cycle aimed at Técnico master’s students, promotes internships in companies or in an international environment, including cotutelle PhDs, and supports the PhD Student hub (which brings together the community of doctoral students around common experiences and interests) among other initiatives. Another new feature is the compilation of funding opportunities for PhD students, including all the research grants offered by the 23 research units affiliated with Técnico.
