Ein Doktorat beinhaltet die Ausbildung von kreativen, kritischen und autonomen Forschenden. Die Aneignung von entsprechenden Qualifikationen liegt hauptsächlich in der Verantwortung der Promovierenden, welche in Absprache mit dem Betreuungsteam, bzw. dem Doktoratskommittee definiert werden (Auszug aus dem LERU Advice Paper, Good practice elements in doctoral training, 2014)

phD

The objective of a doctorate is to educate creative, critical and autonomous researchers. Skills development should be driven by the doctoral candidates themselves, in consultation with their supervisory team, in order to become independent both in their research and in their personal development (according to LERU Advice Paper, Good practice elements in doctoral training, 2014).
