PhD Council

The PhD students of the Graduate School of Life Sciences (GS-LS) are represented by the PhD Council. Each of the 15 programmes in the GS-LS has one student in the council to speak on behalf of that programme. The council is a 'feedback group' on the Board of Studies (BoS). As such, they make up the voice of the PhD student. By raising actual issues and giving feedback on the propositions of the BoS, the council aims to improve the quality of the education of the PhD students and the regulations surrounding their promotion.

For matters concerning education and regulation such as: general courses, training and supervision agreements, mentorship, etc., the council can be reached at the following email address: gsls.phd.council@gmail.com
