The symposium aims to enhance doctoral programmes and artistic research practices in Ukraine. It acts as a platform for exchange of good practices around the crucial aspects of doctoral programmes, including admission processes, curriculum development, doctoral supervision, artistic project examples, preparation, presentation, defence, and international and inter-institutional cooperation.
