A path to excellence
for Master and PhD students

Science for a Changing Planet

Inauguration days

Every year in October


The aim of this event is to welcome students from the graduate programme and outline the scientific topics covered by the programme via interdisciplinary conferences. Workshops to facilitate student integration and help them meet one another and sessions with poster presentations are also held as part of this event. The seminar run at the beginning of the academic year is a wonderful event to bring master’s and doctoral students, lecturers and researchers together. 

After work sessions

Late afternoon every month

 

These informal events give participants the chance to meet with a professional working in their area and discuss their academic and professional background. They are a wonderful opportunity for master’s and doctoral students on the programme to begin to look ahead to their own careers

End-of-year conference

Half-day event each year in June

 

Celebrate the end of the academic year with us at our informal year-end event off campus! Join fellow students for various activities such as a local brewery visit, where we'll explore the hop treatment and fermentation process or laboratory tours to experiment in various application domains to provide you with a hands-on experience in stimulating scientific environments. All our meetings are always followed by a time of exchange around beers and food.

PhD Job Day

2 to 3 weeks in late January

 

The PhD Job day is the 100% digital job fair for PhD students and Master students looking for a thesis. The objectives are to prepare PhD students and Doctors for their career and to show them the possibilities offered after their thesis.

The "Collège Doctoral" in partnership with the Graduate Programme of the University of Lille have done their utmost to offer a quality job forum involving human resources and actors from the Hauts-de-France region (APEC, MEL, Hauts-de-France Region, etc.).
