Doctoral Plan Collection
The D-INFK study administration provides doctoral plan guidelines and a template, but they give limited direction on depth and style. VMI therefore collects well-written research and doctoral plans to show examples of style and scope.
Before 2022, the document was called a research plan. The name changed, while the purpose and most content stayed the same.
Please share your own plan after writing it by emailing vmi-contact@lists.inf.ethz.ch .
Aptitude Colloquium
After handing in your doctoral plan, you present it at the end of your first year in the aptitude colloquium.
