B2 - We give researchers wings!
Day 1 at 16:20 - Early career researchers of today are experienced researchers of the future.
The main goal of RUB Research School is to prepare researchers at an early stage of their careers for this task and to enable them to start their research career in a more “experienced” way.
Supported by a special programme doctoral candidates learn - in a holistic approach - how to apply for research funding in a smart and qualified way by participating in the peer review process of applications for an international funding scheme. The programme not only focuses on how to write successful research proposals, but qualifies doctoral candidates in addition, on how to become a good reviewer and how to move cleverly through the research system.
