Forum for Doctoral Students Extended Into 2024!

This ongoing initiative continues to provide crucial support to doctoral candidates in the human sciences. The Forum for Doctoral Students prioritizes aiding students in completing their studies on time, concurrently striving to reduce stress and boost their competitiveness. This means that PhD students can take part in a mentorship program specifically designed for PhD students, writing labs every week, and career seminars on the topic: What should I do after the PhD? 

Anna Mammitzsch appreciates the transformative mentorship experience that transcended disciplinary boundaries. The first cycle of a unique mentorship program paired Anna, a PhD Candidate in applied linguistics, with her mentor Jonas von Reybekiel Trostek. Jonas is a senior colleague from the Social Science Faculty, working at the Department of Education. The mentorship has now come to an end. 

– My mentor Jonas, fostered my confidence by acknowledging my strengths and achievements. In addition to this, he provided insights into career paths and job opportunities inside and outside academia. We had very fruitful conversations and I am extremely grateful for getting the opportunity to learn more about (academic) career paths in Sweden as an international student. Moreover, thank you Åsa Burman for initiating this program!
 
As a a PhD student at Stockholm University you can consider to apply for a new cycle of the mentorship program until January 4th, 2024.
