Induction days 2025

Share
15 September 2025
On 7 and 8 October, the Graduate School of Social Sciences hosts the induction for the PhD candidates who started their trajectory in 2025 and late 2024

The Induction Program will consist of two half days.

Tuesday 7 October 2025, 2-6 pm

During this afternoon, the full Graduate School team (academic director, program director, and program managers) will introduce themselves and share important information regarding your PhD trajectory: what to expect at every step of the way, who to contact, and where to find all the relevant information. You will of course also have the chance to talk to each other and to ask any questions you may have. We will begin at 1.30 pm with coffee and cake, before starting the informative program at 2 pm. Since there are a lot of things we wish to cover during the afternoon, while also getting to know each other, we ask you to please be on time so that we can start at 2 pm sharp.

We will end the session with some drinks before enjoying an informal dinner together at a nearby restaurant.

Wednesday 8 October 2025, 9.30 am-1 pm 

This session is a workshop on time and project management. Lunch will be provided after. 

Please note: to receive the 0,5 EC for the induction, partaking in the workshop is mandatory.

More information on venues and registrations will be sent directly to the PhDs by email.
