Welcome to the new training catalogue of the Project IDEAL!

The Consortium IDEAL for Doctoral Education in Europe is launching its new training catalog

The Project IDEAL “European soft skills for PhD: enhancing transversal skills through innovative doctoral courses”, is carried out within the ATHENS Network. IDEAL has been funded by the Erasmus+ Strategic Partnerships programme 2019. The project consists in designing and providing high-level doctoral training to address the challenges faced by European researchers.

The consortium of ten partners is coordinated by MINES ParisTech (France), on behalf of ParisTech, and includes 10 institutions in 5 European countries :

• 6 French Engineering Schools (AgroParisTech, Arts et Métiers, Chimie ParisTech, MINES ParisTech, ENSTA Paris, and Télécom Paris)
• 4 European Universities of Science and Technology : Politecnico di Milano – Italy, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid – Spain, Instituto Superior Técnico/Universidade de Lisboa – Portugal and Istanbul Technical University – Turkey.

The IDEAL online catalog is an active database of doctoral courses oriented towards soft skills, innovation and employability.

The main goal is to foster exchange among partner institutions of the Project IDEAL and to disseminate best practices.

The catalog offers 136 doctoral courses in 13 training categories.

The training sessions are taking place in the respective European cities (Paris, Madrid, Milan, Lisbon or Istanbul), or remotely. Doctoral candidates from partner institutions can apply via the IDEAL online catalog.
