The Doctorate Test
Is getting a doctorate the right decision?

Promotions-Test

Am I the doctorate type? Our Doctorate Test gives you answers. © academics

Should you pursue a doctorate? And if yes, where? Our Doctorate Test helps you make your decision. Get started now! 

Updated: 2024-08-07

By: academics

We have developed the Doctorate Test in cooperation with the Psychological Institute at the University of Heidelberg. This test can help determine the degree to which you possess the characteristics and qualifications relevant for pursuing a doctorate.

The test, of course, should not be treated as the only criterion for the decision to work towards a PhD. In addition to the assessment of your aptitude, this test will also recommend the type of doctorate program that suits you best based on the information you provide.  

The Doctorate Test is only available to registered users of academics.

    AI-Supported Academic Writing: Tools, Responsibility, and Best Practices

    Date 30.06.2026
    Time 4:00-5:30 p.m. (CET)
    Moderator Dimitra Lountzi-Derksen, TwentyOne Skills

    POSTPONED! New date: June 30, 4:00 p.m.

    Artificial intelligence is increasingly influencing academic writing and research workflows. This seminar is aimed at researchers who already have experience with AI tools and want to use them more strategically and responsibly in academic contexts.

    Participants will explore how AI can support key stages of academic writing, including literature research, structuring arguments, and text revision. The seminar also addresses essential considerations such as copyright, data protection, and ethical AI use in research and publishing. Rather than focusing on individual tools, the session emphasizes general principles and best practices for integrating AI into established academic workflows while maintaining academic integrity.

    This seminar is a collaboration between academics and TwentyOne Skills, e-learning specialist for research and science. It will be held in english.
