In the framework of the MSCA Cofund program “MISCEA” (Modelling and Interdisciplinarity Science for the Ecological trAnsition), École des Ponts ParisTech is launching a call for applications to select expert evaluators for the selection committee of the 1 st wave of MISCEA thesis offers.
The MISCEA program aims to create a network of 18 doctoral fellows , with PhD theses focusing on the central theme of the ecological and energy transitions . There are currently nine MISCEA thesis offers published on Euraxess , covering a wide diversity of subjects and disciplines. Interested candidates are invited to apply for these thesis offers until April 30th and MISCEA interviews are expected to take place on June 5th , 2024 (online).
As an expert evaluator, you will participate in the selection committee responsible for choosing PhD candidates. Your role in this process is essential, as you will assess the research proposals and the candidates’ potential to make significant contributions in their respective fields. Your expertise and insights will be crucial in guaranteeing the quality and integrity of the program.
The duties of the MISCEA selection committee members are the following :
- You will receive the applications from potential doctoral candidates at the beginning of May, so that you can carry out your proofreading and pre-evaluation of the applications before the auditions on the basis of an evaluation grid.
- You will participate as a jury member in the selection committee during the auditions (scheduled for June 5th, online).
- You will send an argued written evaluation of each candidate and his/her research project to the MISCEA coordinating team within seven days following the auditions.
