As a PhD candidate, you will dive into cutting-edge research within one or two of our research groups at IMM. With over 150 PhD candidates within our institute, we are dedicated to shaping the next generation of leaders in science and innovation. You will actively contribute to IMM’s multidisciplinary projects and have access to our advanced research facilities, for you to make real impact in the field.
PhD trajectory overview
At the start of your PhD, you will write a Training & Supervision Plan (TSP) and Project Plan (PP). The Training & Supervision plan includes themes like research strategy, frequency of contacts with the supervisors, courses to be followed and teaching tasks. The Project Plan describes the planned research and the applied methods. Radboud University uses the program Hora Finita to monitor all running PhD trajectories. In principle, after 48 months (full time employment) your PhD project is completed. When finalizing your PhD, your thesis manuscript will be submitted to the Manuscript Committee. After approval of the Manuscript Committee, you will defend your thesis before a Doctoral Examination Board.
