Project Management Toolkit for Early-Career Researchers

A hands-on session introducing the essentials of project management terms and tools that are easily transferable to a research project.

When starting a PhD or leading a first postdoctoral research project, it is important to consider every aspect of the project, from the start till the defence or publication. Conducting research has a lot in common with managing an R&D project. This workshop equips early-career researchers with the basic vocabulary and practical tools required to view their work from a project manager's perspective. Starting from the definition of objectives in light of the resources available, to time management and planning the work, including milestones and deliverables. The interactive format allows participants to experiment with different tools in practice and learn by the group experience.
