Sources of funding entrusted to the doctoral schoolInstitutional Doctoral Contracts (CDEs): doctoral contracts serve as scientific policy tools in

the hands of France’s higher education institutions (both universities and Grandes Ecoles),overseeing both their number and scientific focus.

In three peculiar cases, the two recruitment procedures are not applicable:

• PhD project supervised by an international consortium having its own recruitmentprocedure. Applicant selection is organized by consortium or foreign partner (PhD co-tutelle, foreign/Campus France grants, ITN/ETN networks…),

• PhD project funded by a research body having its own recruitment procedures(IFSTTAR, IRSTEA, CNES, Industrial companies, foundations,……),

• When PhD student information must be included in the PhD funding calls (e.g., CIFRE,ADEME, Pays de la Loire…), PhD applicants selection is organized by the PhD supervisor.

PhD STUDENTS RECRUITEMENT PROCEDURES

In these three peculiar cases, Doctoral School participates to recruitment ifrequested by the thesis offer supervisor.

For any recruitment, EGAAL Doctoral School asks for respect of two fundamental rules:• To open the PhD offer to competition• To respect the eligibility threshold of an application

THE ELIGIBILITY THRESHOLD

In the EGAAL Doctoral School, eligibility of an application is based on three criterion :• Master degree ranking/marks• Applicant’s motivation• Applicant’s adequacy to the project

Each criteria is quantified in order to obtain a final ‘Applicant Mark’. If this mark is lowerthan the eligibility threshold, application is rejected by the Doctoral School.

TRAINING DURING THE THESIS

According to the Order of 25 May 2016, a doctoral training agreement must bedrawn up for each PhD student.

Attached as an appendix to the Doctoral Charter, this agreement – signed by thePhD student, the thesis supervisors and the head of research unit – must beestablished during the first few months of the thesis.

Agreement must notably specify the student’s individual doctoral trainingprogram, in connection with his/her professional project. Drawn up in closecollaboration between the doctoral student and the supervisors, this trainingprogram must take into account the student’s needs with regard to complementary,disciplinary and cross-disciplinary training courses required for both a successfulthesis and a successful professional project.

This program can be revised upon each reregistration.

DOCTORAL TRAINING AGREEMENT

EGAAL Doctoral School allows students to validate two types of training:

CATALOGUE COURSESDepending on their academic path, thesis program and professional project, PhDstudents choose disciplinary (field-specific) training courses from the EGAAL coursescatalogue and cross-disciplinary courses from the UBL catalogue, with the lattercomprising courses provided by both the UBL Doctorate School and the Site DoctoralCenters. These courses are called “Catalogue Courses”.

ADMINISTRATIVE TRACKING TOOLS

To provide doctoral students with help in their studies and administrativeprocedures, two applications have been created:

• the AMETHIS application for doctoral students in Brittany• the LUNAM Docteur application for doctoral students in the Loire region

-> See ‘Training Commission’ presentation

A unified application for doctoral students in Brittany and the Loire region is beingdeveloped (in 2019).

• During the thesis, a PhD student mustcomplete this document.

• Each year, it is attached to the report of theIndividual Monitoring Committee.

• At the time of preparing the PhD defense, thePhD student sends the document to theEGAAL site manager, with all the attendancecertificates gathered in a pdf file. All thepieces must be written or translated intoFrench or English.

SUPPORTS FOR PhD STUDENTS MOBILITY

SUPPORTS FOR PhD MOBILITY

EGAAL Doctoral School offers funds for PhD students mobility projects (scientific stayor scientific event participating).

-> See ‘International & Professionalization’ Commission presentation

Other supports exist, differing by the funder identity, the amounts of the financialsupport, also by the selection criteria and the nature of the projects expected.EGAAL Doctoral School provides research units and doctoral students withinformation on calls for projects. In general, these calls are annual or semi-annualand organized by "campaign".

Consult regularly the Doctoral School website for calls announcement:https://ed-egaal.u-bretagneloire.fr/

MONITORING PhD STUDENTS

INDIVIDUAL MONITORING COMMITTEE*

The ‘CSI’ meeting offers PhD students the opportunity to take stock of their thesispreparation and review their progress. Students can also discuss any and allproblems encountered (scientific, material and/or relational difficulties).

Each ‘CSI’ meeting must include a confidential interview of the PhD student by thecommittee in the absence of the PhD supervisors.

At the end of the meeting, a report is written in which the PhD student and thesupervisors detail the progress of the thesis work and the committee gives a detailedopinion on the student’s re-registration. According to this report, the Doctoral School(deputy) director gives a favorable or unfavorable opinion for the 2nd, 3rd or 4th re-registration.

NO ‘CSI’ REPORT = NO RE-REGISTRATION

*COMITE DE SUIVI INDIVIDUEL – CSI

• ‘CSI’ members are first chosen by the thesis supervisors and then validated byEGAAL Doctoral School.

• Composition rules:o The ‘CSI’ must include at least two scientists who are not involved in the PhD work

supervisingo At least, one ‘CSI’ member must have a HDR (accreditation to supervise research)

non-member of the research team (HCERES-evaluated team) and at least twoscientists outside of the student’s registration institution

oMembers can be chosen from the private sector

• A ‘CSI’ member is designated as ‘CSI’ president; she/he shall validate the ‘CSI’report prior to signature. In case of committee member resigning, he/she will bereplaced according to the same procedure.

• Finally, ‘CSI’ members can not be chosen as thesis reviewers (rapporteurs) whenforming the thesis defense jury.

‘CSI’ composition must be submitted within the first 6 months of the thesis

COMMITTEE COMPOSITION

USEFUL DOCUMENT

Version française English version

TUTOR APPOINTMENT

At the request of the PhD student, EGAAL Doctoral School may appoint a tutor forhim/her. The tutor is a member of the ‘CSI’, and his/her mission is to advise thePhD student on possible material/professional/relationship difficulties and topromote the successful completion of the thesis work.

PROBLEMS AND CONFLICTS DURING THESIS

CONFLICT AND MEDIATION IN UBL• Any persistent conflict between the PhD student and the supervisor(s) must be

declared to the head of the research unit who will try to find a solution.

• The PhD student, the thesis supervisor(s), the head of the research unit or theIndividual Monitoring Committee could contact the (deputy) director of EGAALDoctoral School. The latter will call a mediation group composed of two membersof the EGAAL Doctoral School council, including a PhD student representative.

• The mediation group will listen to the both parties and propose a solution. Themission of the mediation group implies its impartiality. If the mediation has failed,the PhD student, the PhD supervisor(s), or the head of the research unit may askthe President of the registration institution, the appointment of a new mediator. Incase of new failure, a last resort may finally be filed with President of theregistration institution.

EGAAL doctoral school and the registration institution will keep each other informed ofthe conclusions of the mediation they would have to organize.

IN CASE OF DIFFICULTIES WITH SUPERVISOR(S)• EGAAL Doctoral School proposes a procedure between the appearance of conflicts

and a possible mediation. This procedure applies when the origin of the conflict isthe PhD supervisor(s).

• The procedure allows EGAAL Doctoral School to be informed of a conflict as soonas possible and to quickly assess its severity and to identify possible means ofresolution before any mediation procedure.

• This procedure is not exclusive: it complements other conflict resolutionmechanisms that may exist, in research unit, employer, registration institution…

• The first step of this procedure is the PhD student encounter. EGAAL DoctoralSchool (deputy) director receives him/her in the presence of a representative fromthe registration institution.

If the conflict is based on serious facts relating to criminal proceedings (egpsychological or sexual harassment, physical violence), it must be dealt with by thecompetent authorities.
