Description du projet
Promouvoir les compétences transférables dans la recherche doctorale
Plusieurs universités et organismes non universitaires se sont réunis, sous la coordination de l’Université de Tromsø de Norvège, pour améliorer l’enseignement doctoral par la formation aux compétences transférables et l’articulation du marché du travail. Dans le cadre du projet DocEnhance, financé par l’UE, ils élaboreront un programme d’études plus axé sur l’emploi et l’innovation pour les programmes de doctorat afin de faciliter la transition vers l’emploi. Le projet permettra également de concevoir un concept et un matériel de cours, ainsi qu’une étude de suivi de carrière en libre accès. Le projet sera axé sur les compétences transférables, qui facilitent la transition vers l’emploi et sont largement applicables, quels que soient le domaine scientifique et le parcours professionnel choisis. Tous les résultats du projet seront fournis sous forme de ressources pédagogiques ouvertes et librement accessibles par le biais de la plateforme DocEnhance, et ils seront testés dans plusieurs universités européennes partenaires.
Objectif
DocEnhance aims to enhance transferable skills intelligence and integration into existing PhD programmes by i) involving the non-academic sector in developing a more employment and innovation-oriented curriculum for PhD programmes, ii) facilitating work-based learning and business-education partnerships through developing PhD courses, and iii) tracking of PhD graduate career paths. The major outputs of the project are a recommended transferable skills curriculum for PhD programmes, a novel course concept and material, and an open access career-tracking survey. The project will focus on transferable skills, as these skills facilitate the transition into employment and are widely applicable, regardless of scientific field and chosen career path. All project outputs will be provided as freely available Open Educational Resources through an online platform, the DocEnhance Platform. This platform will function as a comprehensive, user-friendly and equal access point for transferable skills intelligence and training in research education for researchers in all career stages, as well as a community and networking site, designed to live beyond the project lifetime.
DocEnhance builds on a large, diverse and experienced consortium, several existing EU-projects and other initiatives to achieve these ambitious goals. The External Advisory Board and the Industry Reference Group represent the major stakeholders and end users of the project outputs, and their involvement is ensured through a co-creation approach that includes project evaluation and validation events. All project outputs will be piloted among several European partner universities during the project for proof-of-concept, and a project partner from Africa and member university of the the World University Network represents the interests of non-European countries.
