SISSA is committed to helping its PhD students and postdoctoral researchers develop the transferable skills essential for a successful career in academia, industry, and beyond. Through a dedicated training program, the School offers courses and workshops on soft skills such as communication, project management, scientific writing, entrepreneurship, and teamwork.
These activities are primarily addressed to SISSA’s PhD students and postdocs. For details on eligibility and registration, please contact the designated course coordinator.
The Valorisation and Innovation Office coordinates the collection of these initiatives throughout the year. If you wish to propose or promote a soft skill activity, please contact valorisation@sissa.it
