2. Group coaching for PhD students
Stop doing it alone - PhD support Program
Get the support you desire and advance your PhD with ease
We know what it means to do a PhD. We also know about the ups and downs; the seemingly insurmountable challenges that lie in front of you. Our programme will give you the support your need during your PhD to tackle the challenges and to cross the PhD-mountain. Additionally, you will get impulses for your professional life well beyond your doctorate.

Why
This program is for you, if
- you have absolutely no time for doing it ;-).
- you feel you are not getting enough and the kind of supervision you need for your dissertation process.
- you are tired of having to do everything on your own, 24/7, without breaks.
- you doubt that your ideas, knowledge and skills are good enough to survive in science.
- you long for more serenity and ease in everyday work.
- you finally want to focus on what is important to you about your research topic and stop worrying.
- you have the desire to personally grow in community with others - which goes far beyond your academic career.
What you get
The mentoring program is a mixture of individual and group coaching, exchange groups and personal consulting services from Insa. We strengthen your own problem-solving skills, your ability to communicate with (difficult ;-)) supervisors and facilitate the dissertation and publication process.
