PhD Block seminars

The HEC Paris PhD Program offers an attractive series of block seminars open to PhD students from all over the world.

A very inspiring seminar in Strategy! Activities (e.g., article reviews, article development workshop, learning diary) as well as meaningful group discussions enabled me to advance my thesis project and to reflect on my future research career.
