Training: Forming Your Thesis Advisory Committee and TAC Meetings

The IMPRS-IS coordination office hosts an annual series of info sessions each focused on a different program related topic. This session will offer scholars a comprehensive overview of the thesis advisory committee. We highly encourage all scholars who have not yet formed their TAC to attend.

IMPRS-IS Training Session: The Thesis Advisory Committee
Date: Friday, May 12, 2023
Time: 11:00 - 12:00 CEST
Location: Zoom

All IMPRS-IS scholars are required to have a thesis advisory committee (TAC). A TAC approves the Ph.D. project, reviews the progress of the scholar, and advises her or him on further studies and research.

This info session will cover:

What is a TAC
How and when to form your TAC
TAC meetings
Important documents
- TAC agreement
- Abstract
- Project plan
- Executive summary
Uploading to ZEBRA

Also, if you have any questions, comments, or concerns regarding your TAC, this meeting will be a good opportunity to discuss these issues in an open forum.

IMPRS-IS scholars will receive an invitation to this meeting along with a Zoom link to join via email. With questions, please contact Sara Sorce (sara.sorce@tuebingen.mpg.de).
