We invite you to submit offers of facultative courses for doctoral students of the Doctoral School in the academic year 2026/2027. Facultative courses should concern general competencies that are useful to all or some doctoral students as future researchers, academic teachers, science communicators, or employees of various technological industries. They should not contain a component specific to a discipline – this is reserved for specialistic courses, which we have asked the Institutes responsible for conducting research in a specific disciplines.
The invitation is addressed to all academic teachers employed at the University of Silesia, as well as to people who are not academic teachers, who want to offer doctoral students specific, useful competencies.
