PON Board Vacancies
PON Board Vacancies
Are you an enthusiastic PhD candidate that wants to improve the life of your fellow PhDs? Then we are looking for you!
We have currently multiple open positions within PON!
Vice-Chair
If you are interested in PhD rights, policies and regulations and want to improve PhD life by improving the current PhD policies and regulations, then you might be interested in becoming our new vice-chair. Together with the chair, the vice-chair is responsible for representing the best interest of all PhD candidates in Nijmegen at different levels within (e.g. rector, graduate schools, PhD policy officers) and outside (e.g. PhD Network Netherlands) the Radboud University/UMC.
Treasure
Do you want to contribute to strengthen the PhD community? Are you interested in occupying a key role in the main PhD representative organization? Then maybe you should become PON’s new treasurer. As treasurer, you will be in charge of structuring the budget of the organization and keeping track of the monthly expenses. You do NOT need to have any prior experience or finance knowledge for this role.
Member Educational Committee
Are you interested in organizing impactful events that can improve the trajectory of many PhD candidates? Then you might want to join PON´s Educational Activities committee. You will be in charge of organizing events that will contribute to improving the skills of PhD candidates beyond their courses. You will work in close collaboration with other committee members to plan events like the annual PhD Career Day, PhD cafe and workshops. In this position you help to offer broader and meaningful skills to all PhDs in Nijmegen.
For all these positions, you can be in any year of your PhD, from any faculty/research institute - we represent them all, and we want to hear your voice!
The PON board meets once every two weeks, and usually we go for a drink afterwards. As a board member, you can join us on all our events, sometimes at a discount/for free, and enjoy the PON social life of board dinners and drinks!
But most importantly, you will get a chance to make a lasting impact on the Radboud PhD community and get to know more about how universities work, not only in Nijmegen but all over The Netherlands!
