Conditions of employment

Being a PhD student in the Netherlands
In the Netherlands, every PhD student gets paid a salary; no additional grants are needed. Moreover, although PhD students sometimes take courses, there is no minimum requirement. Hence, PhD students are more like employees than like students. Indeed, the Dutch word for PhD student translates to "research trainee". The work of a PhD student may include assisting in courses of BSc or MSc programs of the department. This amounts to around 10% of the time; the remaining time is spent on research and research-related activities. Foreign PhD students need not speak Dutch: it is easy to get by with English, not only at the university but also in everyday life.

What we offer
We offer one PhD position in a stimulating research environment. Gross salary ranges from € 2.325 per month in the first year increasing up to € 2.972 in the fourth year. TU Eindhoven offers a broad package of fringe benefits (e.g. excellent technical infrastructure, child care, and excellent sports facilities).
