The EUA Council for Doctoral Education is pleased to open a call for contributions to the 2023 EUA-CDE Annual Meeting.

This year’s Annual Meeting will take place from 14-16 June in Lahti, Finland, on “Engaged research - the role of communication in doctoral education”. The conference hosts are Lappeenranta-Lahti University of Technology and University of Helsinki.

With the event’s programme focusing on various dimensions of communication in doctoral education, the EUA-CDE community and additional stakeholders will also come together to discuss comprehensive approaches to including communication in doctoral education strategies and practices.

As such, we invite representatives of EUA-CDE member-universities to submit proposals related to this year’s theme. There are two ways to make a contribution, either through a parallel session or the new “My doctoral school in 3 minutes” format. The deadline to submit proposals is 17 April 2023.

Detailed information on the type of contributions sought and the submission process can be found in the full call for contributions.
