The focus years consist of docARTES certified doctoral activities. These activities are organized by the partner institutions and may take the form of seminars, conferences, workshops, or other academic events that align with the objectives of the doctoral curriculum. Each certified activity is designed to support candidates in advancing their individual research and artistic practice within the docARTES framework.
Every year, the candidates receive an overview of the docARTES certified doctoral activities from which they can choose to attend during the next curriculum season.
