Conflict Management and Mediation

The Doctoral School plays a central role in the management of conflicts regarding doctoral students. In case a major conflict is not resolved easily within the research unit, it is important to notify the Doctoral School immediately, so that an official mediation procedure can be launched.

But the ED BioSPC is not the only way of recourse. These conflicts may concern scientific integrity, ethics, harassment or discrimination.

Doctoral students and supervisors can mobilize these recourses.

Department offices

They are made up of researchers who are particularly involved in the life of the ED. They are used to dealing with conflict situations, and can act as local points of contact for doctoral students and supervisors alike. Board members are listed on the pages describing each department.

Doctoral school student representatives

Doctoral student representatives are very active in the life of the school, and some of them are members of the ED Council, so they are close to your concerns.
