Doctoral training at ED 127

   1. Participation to a least one thematic school (typically accounting for 30hrs), on a topic that can be close or not to the PhD subject.

   2. 60 hours of training subdivided as follows:

      -   participation to long modules of 30hrs and short modules of 15hrs proposed by Doctoral School ED127

      -   participating to training modules proposed by other doctoral schools (see list and updates at the end of this page)

      -   participation to courses at the Collège de France

      -   participation to the "Doctoriales" regularly organized by several Universities.

      -   attending classes of a "Master 2" level (or equivalent), differing from those that were followed before as a student

The full list of modules provided by the ED127, as well as a number of links to institutes providing other doctoral training classes is available at the end of this page.

   3. In addition to these 90 training hrs, it is required of PhDs with a French contract to attend a short training class on Ethics in science and/or the scientific method.

PhD students wishing to attend more classes than the 90-hour requirement are free to do so.

Foreign students, contracts, and PhDs partly carried out outside France

Foreign PhD students defending in a French institute/university and/or with a French contract are required to comply with these training requirements.

Should specific needs/constraints arise for recently arrived foreign students, the formation plan may be adapted after discussing with the formation manager.

Equally, should a significant fraction of the PhD be carried out outside of France, or should other training requirements exist from another party involved in the thesis contract, the formation plan can be adapted. In any case, contact the formation manager for more information.
