The PhD Consulting service provide consultancy service to PhD students at Aalborg University.
The PhD consultancy service will provide help and assistance to PhD students within these areas:
- Scientific Computing
- Mathematics
- Statistics
The service should be considered as supplementary supervision in the above mentioned areas with the scope of enabling the PhD student to progress further in their research by, e.g.
- aid efficient implementation and structuring of computational tasks,
- providing assistance to mathematical issues,
- identify appropriate statistical methods and methodologies.
Workflow
The typical case will consist of one or two meetings of approximately one hour.
At the first meeting, the PhD student will present the research problem to one or more of the members of the PhD Consultancy team (see box). A collaborative effort will attempt to identify the scientific research challenges.
After the meeting the PhD student will study the proposed methods and attempt to progress further on their own.
If needed a follow-up meeting will be arranged such that a more detailed discussion of the problems can be addressed.
