2nd International Congress
DOCTORATE AND RESEARCH
JULY 14-15 2026
About the Congress
The International Congress of Doctoral Students is an initiative that seeks to promote meetings, the exchange of ideas and collaboration between doctoral students (from the initial phase to the final) and researchers regardless of their field of research.
The Congress also fulfils the “third mission” since through its activities this event disseminates knowledge by transferring research results outside the academic field, making such results accessible and useful for society, companies and institutions. Likewise, the congress promotes innovation by strengthening the link between the university and society, contributing to the cultural, social and economic development of the territory.
