Workgroups
Each year at the General Meeting workgroups are formed, which are the main acting organs of the PhDnet. They coordinate specific tasks within the PhDnet, organize events or collect and distribute information to the doctoral researchers.
The Career & Conference Group has two focuses, which are carried out by subgroups: 1) career development and 2) conference organization for doctoral researchers in the Max Planck Society.

The Survey Group regularly conducts surveys with current doctoral researchers within the Max Planck Society (MPS). These surveys provide an invaluable body of data that allows the PhDnet to make informed decisions about the future course and goals of the doctoral researchers and our relationship to the MPS General Administration.

The Open Science working group consists of several subgroups with the common goal of making knowledge accessible to everyone worldwide. In order to do this, we pursue a variety of approaches starting locally at the Max Planck Institutes and reaching a global publicity on an international conference, such as OpenCon.
