The round table “Features of training Doctors of Philosophy in the field of ‘Sociology': problems, experience, prospects for development”
With a view to the continuous monitoring and improvement of the PhD educational and research programme in “Sociology”, in March 2024 the Institute of Sociology initiated a round table, “Features of training Doctors of Philosophy in the field of «Sociology»: problems, experience, prospects for development”.
The guarantors and stakeholders of PhD programmes in “Sociology”, representing Ukraine's leading universities and research centres, exchanged experience and identified directions for possible cooperation in training young sociologists. The subject of discussion was the whole set of questions connected with running such programmes — from admission to the postgraduate school to the defence of completed dissertations before one-off specialised councils. Attention was focused not so much on the successes of the programmes as on the problematic points, in order to understand what causes the greatest difficulties and to outline possible ways of resolving them. In the course of the discussion, forms of further cooperation were agreed.
