Resilient Researcher: Building Stress Competence during Your Doctorate
A peer group facilitated by the Bonn Graduate Center
Academic tasks and administration, tutoring and teaching, partner projects… and family first of all! You can feel the stress building up even while reading this. Being asked to do everything at once and straight away is an integral part of daily life in academia. This workshop uses cognitive stress models to show how stress is triggered and the ways in which it can be reduced and avoided.
Resilience and Well-Being in Academia
A workshop offered by the Bonn Graduate Center
Academia is an ultramarathon that we try to run as a sprint. This approach tends to leave us with little time or energy for life outside of work and very few resources to cope when we face challenges. This workshop provides you with tools to increase your resilience to stress, anxiety and burnout, and to enhance your overall well-being.
