The EuPRAXIA-DN Introductory Skills School and Media Training is for first year PhD students who are part of the EuPRAXIA Doctoral Network. It covers many of the non-academic skills which are required to complete a PhD and will be useful in delegates careers after they finish their PhDs.
Sessions include presentation skills, project management and science communication as well as introduction to the Peer Review Process.
The school will also include a visit to the Cockcroft Institute at Daresbury with a tour of the facilities.
In the first week, the Fellows will be joined by students from the Liverpool Centre for Doctoral Training for Innovation in Data Intensive Science (LIV.INNO)
In the second week, the students will take part in a media training with the multi-award winning media company Carbon Digital at MediaCityUK in Manchester. The training will introduce the EuPRAXIA-DN Fellows to the creative and technical processes behind modern media production.
