Mobility and stays
Stays at a prestigious research centre will be encouraged. This activity is optional, although due to the fact that it offers students specific training in the field of research related to their doctoral thesis, they are strongly encouraged to complete a stay during the second or third year of their PhD (third or fourth in the case of part-time students). The stay should ideally be for at least 1 month, and to obtain an international mention, a minimum stay of 3 months is required. Nevertheless, alternate periods may be summed up to reach the required duration.
The stay and other mobility action must be authorised beforehand by the Doctoral Programme's University Commission. They should preferably be carried out at universities other than those participating in the Doctoral Programme in Nutrigenomics and Personalised Nutrition.
