NATIONAL PHD WELCOME DAY 2020

First year PhD candidates in Luxembourg are warmly invited to the 5th National PhD Welcome Day on 28 October in Belval.

The health crisis has challenged all of us to find new ways to connect with people; we will offer to the PhD Community an event fully in line with the health regulations.

This annual event will provide excellent opportunities, such as:

Networking with peers;
Acquiring the tools for a successful PhD during toolkit sessions led by Luxembourg actors in doctoral education, researcher networks and student associations;
Picking up tips and best practices from third and fourth year PhD candidates.

Most importantly, the PhD's will have FUN and enjoy the friendly and welcoming atmosphere of the National PhD welcome day!
