Participation Credits
CIMeC PhD Students are part of a community. As such, voluntary and proactive participation in the Center’s activities is considered key in becoming a researcher. The participation/community service can be intended as, but not limited to, the following: assisting and organizing lab tours, DS Day organization, CIMeC event planning, Researchers’ Night, Orientation/Open Days, journal clubs, assisting visiting professors, etc. New opportunities for participation will be circulated by email, with ‘opportunities for participation’ marked in the subject line. Participation activity, be it with the aim of public engagement, or with that of supporting the research center they belong to.
Note: sitting in on exams is not considered participation, nor is helping Triennale or Magistrale students with their theses.
