Every year, Wageningen Graduate Schools (WGS) organises a one-day event consisting of a diverse set of workshops that deal with all sorts of elements important for PhD candidates and also postdocs. These workshops are generally set up as teasers that give insight into more elaborate courses and workshops organised by Wageningen Graduate Schools, but can also be stand-alone workshops. At the end of the day, there will be drinks and a dinner.
Programme
The programme consists of 4 workshop sessions over the day (two before and two after lunch). Each session consists of 6 or 7 parallel running workshops of 1.5 hours each. Topics that are dealt with are listed below. Each workshop has a maximum number of participants, and workshops are filled on a first come, first served basis. So, to ensure that you can participate in your most favourite workshops, register early. Once a workshop is fully booked, this will be indicated on the WGS PhD carousel webpage, where you can also find more details about the different workshops.
