The purpose of the Induction Days is to give all new doctoral candidates guidance on academic requirements, culture, and expectations right from the beginning of their doctoral studies. A condensed program of transferable skills will equip the participants with the most needed soft skills to start their doctorate and grant them a sense of belonging to the research community, ensuring they get the right points of contact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Full participation to the induction days (including pre &amp; post assignments) will guarantee a minimum of 2 ECTS from the Transferable Skills team. Possible further credits will be allocated by the doctoral schools. Eligible doctoral candidates will receive more information and access to a Moodle page.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-spacer is-spacer-size-sm\"><\/div>\n\n\n<h2
