Programme for EArly-stage Researchers in Lille

Descripción del proyecto

Ayudar a los estudiantes de doctorado a combinar ciencia y soluciones científicas

El proyecto PEARL, financiado con fondos europeos, ofrece programas doctorales de gran calidad a treinta investigadores noveles para efectuar proyectos de investigación interdisciplinaria en cuatro ámbitos: la salud de precisión, la ciencia para un planeta cambiante, la sociedad del conocimiento y la información, y las prácticas, sociedades y culturas cambiantes. Los ámbitos científicos seleccionados y propuestos por PEARL combinan ciencia y soluciones científicas con métodos sociales, a fin de construir la sociedad inclusiva del mañana. Las Acciones Marie Skłodowska-Curie y la Agencia Nacional de Investigación de Francia cofinancian este programa doctoral. Uno de los principales objetivos de PEARL es formar a los investigadores para lograr la excelencia técnica y científica. Otro de los objetivos consiste en impulsar sus carreras al ofrecerles oportunidades de movilidad internacional e intersectorial.

Objetivo

PEARL, proposed by I-SITE ULNE, will target three main objectives: (1) training, in an interdisciplinary context, a generation of early-stage researchers (PhD students) for scientific and technical excellence and equipping them with unique skills in terms of transferable background, fully build on selected societal challenges needs. (2) implementing innovative actions aimed at boosting the careers of PhD students, exposing them to inter-sectorial (via a strong network of public and private organisations) and international mobility (taking advantage of a unique cross-border campus), and at enabling them to develop skills via an efficient mentoring and managerial scheme and (3) helping I-SITE ULNE to achieve its main goal: to be ranked among Europe's 50 leading reference universities and to be recognized at the highest international level.

Meeting European standards for doctoral studies, PEARL aims to welcome and guide recruited PhD students in the best conditions, provide them with a secure and unparalleled environment to carry out their research. The selected scientific domains proposed by PEARL combine science and scientific solutions with societal approaches to build tomorrow’s inclusive society promoting citizen well-being, aiming at transferring fundamental discoveries to applied technologies, to produce tangible innovation in society. PEARL will offer top quality conditions and a highly attractive environment of excellence, intended to fuel student’s desire to learn, as well as boost their taste for entrepreneurship and, creativity in research. The interdisciplinary / transnational character of the PhD projects, along with international and inter-sectorial secondments will be an asset for the future employability of PhD students both in and outside academia.
