DocLounge
DocLounge 2.0
Our concept involves improving the facilities and generating awareness through campaigns to encourage doctoral students to familiarize themselves with the DocLounge and use it more frequently. To this end, the upgraded workstations will be re-staffed and users will assume more responsibility for self-management.
