Writing Retreat for PhD students
06 - 08 July 2026
Powered by Promotionskolleg Brandenburg / Brandenburg Graduate School for Applied Sciences
A few days away from your usual workplace to focus calmly and productively on your own writing — that’s the idea behind the writing retreat. Together, we create a structured writing environment with dedicated writing sessions and optional mini-workshops (e.g., “How can I get into writing more quickly?”, “How do I structure an introduction?”, “How can I stay productive throughout the day?”), led by the experienced writing coach Dr. Martina Michalikova. Short yoga sessions support active recovery and help you stay energized and motivated to work on your text throughout the day.
If desired, the writing coach also offers individual 25-minute one-on-one sessions, which may include targeted feedback on your text.
When: 6 – 8 July 2026 each from 9 am to 5 pm
Where: Potsdam University of Applied Sciences
Who: Doctoral candidates and Postdocs
