By participating in the workshop, you will receive valuable personal feedback on your PhD research or a specific part of it. You will also get a chance to meet other PHD candidates in the field of urban and regional studies!



We invite all interested PhD candidates to present their work in the workshop, and to discuss about the joys and hurdles related to the PhD process. After "the official part", we will continue our discussions in Brewery Restaurant Koulu!
