Writing a good project description is the key to being accepted into a PhD programme. In this workshop, you will meet three former PhD Fellows in the PhD programme in Music Research who have been through the same process as you are undergoing now. Together, they will facilitate a workshop on writing the project description.

Organiser: The PhD Committee (the PhD programme in Music Research).
