Over the past few years, we have been working to develop a Core Curriculum for doctoral education at the faculty. This initiative has grown out of a need that has become increasingly clear: that our doctoral students should not only develop deep specialist knowledge through their research projects, but also the broader competencies that are part of doctoral education.The background for this work a
