Abstract

At the 2022 EFMD Doctoral Programmes Conference (DPC), the general theme was the development of healthy doctoral ecosystems and the importance of networks and networking for doctoral graduates and programmes. We focused on different possible permutations of such ecosystems and on boundary conditions that ensure doctoral programmes can run smoothly. An analogy we like to use is that of a microchip. Just like an ecosystem, there are different key components in a microchip that are linked via conductors. The chip will only function efficiently when all the necessary parts are defined, connected and aligned. During the conference, we looked at the actual and potential elements that can comprise the doctoral ecosystem and to the connections needed for alignment across the system. Using the microchip analogy, we visualised the main learnings and messages of the conference on a whiteboard. This way, we took advantage of the physical nature of the conference and co-created the ‘doctoral microchip’ together with all delegates.
