Title: Joint supervision – blessing and cursed paths of doing a PhD at two universities

Author, co-author: Bronec, Jakub

Abstract: As if doing a PhD at one university is not “difficult” enough, I opted for a cotutelle agreement between the University of Luxembourg and Charles University for my PhD project on Cultural and Educational activities of the Jewish minority in Czechoslovakia and Luxembourg (1945 -1989). Since my roots are in the Czech Republic and Jewish history is very close to me, a jointly supervised thesis seemed like a clear choice. In fact, this was the first step on a tortuous road to a contract that was supposed to make my studies much easier and less stressful.
