La formación y las actividades de los programas de doctorado en tiempos de pandemia

Resumen

Today's doctoral training is a response to the gradual transformation that higher education institutions have been undergoing for several decades as a result of the marked influence of globalisation, economic recessions and technology. However, the emergence of the Covid-19 pandemic has accelerated some changes in the way doctoral programmes operate. The research presented here investigates the changes that have occurred with the advent of the health crisis caused by Covid-19, and with the methodological support of virtual ethnography, investigates how the Doctoral Schools have been forced to rethink their practices in the face of this situation. Two types of response have been identified: one strong and one weak; however, some of these changes, called adaptations, suffered within schools and doctoral programmes, which may be the beginning of new transformations in the long term.
