Who is the target audience?
Doctoral candidates at Ghent University must complete a short online onboarding track filled with information to get them situated. Make sure to complete the entire track before you are due to submit your first annual self-reflection report. You will not be able to submit a self-reflection report or re-enrol as a PhD candidate at Ghent University until you do. After you complete it, the track will remain available to you for the duration of your doctoral research at Ghent University, so you can consult it whenever necessary.
Note: Please note that you must use your UGent account to log into Ufora.
