Individual DC projects

The 13 Doctoral Candidates (DC) will be enrolled in the PhD programme of one of the participating organizations of the network.

The DC will have the opportunity to carry out individual research projects at their host institutions, under the supervision of our network members, and to undertake secondments in institutions belonging to other sectors.
