Course 7: Work-Life Balance

To be successful as a doctoral student, you need one thing above all: that you are doing well. But most of the time we totally neglect ourselves during this time. Whether writing the dissertation, planning and conducting experiments or supervising students - everything is (more) important and (more) urgent. But trying to manage the doctoral marathon at sprint pace comes at the expense of your own health and productivity. In this training, you'll (re)focus on what's important, strengthen your energy sources, and learn strategies for managing stress. In addition to techniques and tools to manage your work efficiently and set priorities, the main focus will be on taking a look at yourself and saying yes to yourself instead of just to others.
