DocColloq offers an interdisciplinary program under the motto “By doctoral candidates for doctoral candidates”:
The regular Interdisciplinary Colloquium by doctoral students for doctoral students aims to give doctoral students the opportunity to gain presentation experience in a protected space in which they can present their own dissertation project, present new papers or outlines of essays, try out presentations for conferences or practise their disputation.
From 2019 to 2024, an annual Interdisciplinary Graduate Conference at Trier University was organized by doctoral candidates for doctoral candidates, providing doctoral candidates with a platform to engage in academic exchange across university and subject boundaries and, in particular, to gain expertise in event organization and academic communication. This offer is currently paused and will be resumed when an organizational team from the ranks of doctoral candidates approaches the GUT.
