Sinead Hewson | Unconventional Innovators

A doctoral programme is an empowering, transformational experience regardless of the outcome. Our focus is to help you work out what to do with your know-how, ambition and innovative ideas.

Unconventional Doctorates is a Dutch start-up whose purpose is to tackle low completion rates among doctoral candidates, particularly those from underrepresented groups, self-funded, or not working in education. The company aims to achieve this by developing a platform that provides users with on-demand services, free and premium content, study guidelines, and specialised peer-to-peer groups. By doing so, it hopes to foster a more diverse community of innovators, academics, and civic leaders.
