TRAINING ACTIVITIES: ROADMAP
A roadmap of the research training is given below. The time frame is for full time students. Part time students can distribute the activities in five years using the roadmap as a guide.
In any case, for both types of students it will be mandatory participate in two activities among specialised courses and workshops attendance.
Activities starting on the first year:
-ACTIVITY 001: Attendance at research seminars
-ACTIVITY 002: Attendance at specialised courses (in first and second year specifically)
Activities starting on second year:
-ACTIVITY 003: Exposition of research works in national and international workshops
-ACTIVITY 004: Preparation and exposition of two formal seminars.
-ACTIVITY 005: Preparation of works to publish in research journals
-ACTIVITY 006: Research stays in foreign centers
Activities to carry out regularly during the doctorate:
-ACTIVITY 007: Attendance at the weekly meetings of the Astrophysics club of the department of Theoretical Physics organised by the doctorate programme.
Mobility financing plan for these activities
The Astrophysics Doctorate Programme has various ways of funding:
--The Astrophysics Graduate Programme has the Quality Certification of the Campus of Excellence UAM-CSIC, which includes mobility grants.
--Travel grants from the U.A.M. or, in specific cases, some of the partners.
--Internal funds from the research groups, through research projects and contracts.
--Mobility grants associated to scholarships (FPI, FPU, …).
--Mobility programmes of the Ministry, autonomous communities, European Union or the U.A.M.
--International mobility programmes: ERASMUS.
--Exceptional agreements that the programme can establish with any other entity.
--Funding by the hosts.
The grants that the U.A.M. students can apply are detailed in the following link. (http://www.uam.es/ss/Satellite/es/1233310432217/sinContenido/Becas.htm)
