2. PE-RC Weekend (15-17 April 2011)

The idea of this weekend is to make PhD students more familiar with the Graduate School and to give them an idea of what to expect during the PhD track and how to avoid major catastrophes and disappointments. Focus will be on the pit-falls you can encounter during the PhD and what the criteria are for a successful PhD within 4 years. For more information click here.
