The Antwerp Doctoral School helps PhD researchers complete the PhD process successfully and prepares them for their careers by means of tailor-made doctoral programmes. To this end, the Antwerp Doctoral School organises a mandatory doctoral study programme which PhD researchers put together themselves depending on their needs. PhD researchers can choose from a wide range of courses and also incorporate research-related activities into the doctoral study programme.

Besides a wide range of courses and training programmes, the Antwerp Doctoral School also organises information sessions, lectures and other activities aimed at both PhD researchers and post-doctoral researchers.
