PhD council
The PedOn PhD Council represents the interests of PhD candidates at the Nieuwenhuis Institute. We organize events to foster a sense of community and share knowledge among PhD candidates. Additionally, we address matters concerning PhD students within the institute with the research director, Annette van der Putten.
Feel free to reach out to us with any questions or remarks (phdcouncilpedon rug.nl). We look forward to seeing you at one of our events!
