Description du programme:
In Switzerland and elsewhere, the past decade has seen a remarkable expansion of Microbial Sciences with a major impact on fundamental and applied life sciences and medicine. The Universities of Western Switzerland represent major poles of research in Microbial Sciences in the disciplines bacteriology, virology, microbial ecology, and mycology with currently over 30 high-profile research groups located at the Universities of Fribourg, Geneva, Lausanne, Neuchâtel, and EPFL.
The mission of the Doctoral Programme in Microbial Sciences is to offer activities dedicated to the scientific and technical training in fundamental and applied microbial sciences according to the specific needs and interests of students at the doctoral level.
The Doctoral Programme in Microbial Sciences further provides an opportunity for PhD students to contribute to the elaboration of activities via a participation in committees and/or involvement in the organization of the annual retreat. The program is complemented by the Programme Transversal for the development of generic skills of the CUSO (http://competences.cuso.ch/).
The goal of the Doctoral Programme in Microbial Sciences is to offer advanced research training in order to prepare doctoral students for an optimal development of their future career.
