Glowbase is a PhD progress tracking platform that allows universities to organize, track, and collaborate on PhD programs. It keeps track of student milestones, research projects, and facilitates communication between coordinators, professors, and students. Universities can customize the platform to their specific requirements and import existing student data. Glowbase then provides overviews of student and program progress, statistics for reporting, and tools for networking and stimulating interdisciplinary collaboration. The University of Zurich successfully uses Glowbase to streamline administration of its PhD ecology program.
