2DOCTORAL SCHOOLS IN BRITTANYBrittany has about 2,800 doctoral students who are dividedup into 8 doctoral schools. The doctoral schools, which actas research team support structures, promote synergybetween the disciplines and offer supplementary coursesto facilitate career development.The 8 doctoral schools are structured around Brittany’s 4 universities(the Université de Bretagne Occidentale (UBO), the Université de Bretagne-Sud(UBS), the Université de Rennes 1, and the Université Rennes 2 – HauteBretagne).The UEB represents an enormous research potential, and thusit has responsibilities which are just as important as thosewhich are teaching and training-related.This training and experience in research are an essential requisite for the developmentof a knowledge and innovation-based economy and society - a recognisedobjective of the European Union.It is the UEB’s ambition to contribute to this by offering within its doctoralprogrammes a very high level of scientific doctoral training, a diverse rangeof supplementary courses, and personalised supervision of doctoral students’professional projects. To guarantee the quality of its doctorate and to fulfilthe ambitions of its doctoral policy, the UEB attaches great importance to severalkey points:Transparency:In the recruitment of doctoral students and the awarding of research grants,and in the respect of the rights and duties of doctoral students, trainersand supervisors, the laboratory, or the host establishment - as expressed inthe Doctorate Charter;Welcome:A personalised welcome makes it easier to deal on an individual basis with alldoctorate-related administrative questions;The professional project:An individual continuing training plan in addition to the research project. Thispromotes the development, deepening, and diversification of knowledgeand skills well beyond that of the scientific threshold;Increase of the awareness of supervisors and trainers:by consciousness-raising seminars on doctoral students’ professional projects;The future of doctoral students:by the monitoring of doctoral training indicators, and help in job search preparationand career development;Networkingof the UEB’s doctoral students and doctors through a variety of associations.4See the ministerial order of 7 August 2006on doctoral training:>> www.legifrance.gouv.fr5
