The Industrial Doctorates Plan celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. During this first decade of operation, the program of the Department of Research and Universities has involved 530 companies, the 12 Catalan universities, 25 research centers in Catalonia (CERCA), other research organizations in Catalonia (CSIC, BSC, Eurecat, among others), which together have involved more than 600 researchers.
To celebrate this anniversary, we present the first edition of the 2022 Impact Awards for Industrial Doctorates.
The aim of this competition is to make visible the impact that industrial doctorate projects funded by the Government of Catalonia have generated from different perspectives: general in society, in the company or institution itself, in the professional development of people. In addition, a second objective is to bring the Industrial Doctorates closer to the public in order to identify challenges (current or future) and anticipate what type of impact they would generate. It is hoped that these proposals may be future applications to the DI call for grants.
The competition is aimed at participants of the Industrial Doctorates Plan (company managers, thesis directors, industrial doctors, industrial doctoral students), but also, and with the aim of opening the Industrial Doctorates programme to all citizens, we invite anyone of legal age residing in Catalonia to participate in the competition.
The winners of the different categories of the contest will receive as a prize:
· The inclusion of his text in the Commemorative Book of the 10 years of the Industrial Doctorates Plan
· Delivery of an iPad Wi-fi 64GB Space Gray (9th Generation) plus an iPad Smart Cover (Black) during the 10th anniversary celebration, which will take place in the first quarter of 2023.
The deadline for submission will be 2:00 p.m . on December 15, 2022.
