Parcoursic

Fabrice Martin, translation by Cynthia Schoch

Parcoursic association aims at fostering exchanges between young researchers in the Information and Communication Sciences (SIC).

Founded in 2007, following workshops on the career path of young researchers in the Information and Communication Sciences, Parcoursic is already planning to hold another edition in 2008.

On its list of achievements, we should point out the very helpful “Toolbook for Information and Communication Sciences Grad Students," available in both html and pdf formats. Funding, academic recruitment, journals and useful websites. The “toolbook” gives a rundown on everything a Information and Communication grad students needs to know. A head’s up for students in a Master’s program considering doing a PhD.

Parcoursic online Forum is also worth it. Have a look at "About the PhD" and "From PhD to employment" topics.
