Hi!

Great you get to chose between two PhD programs. Its hard for me to give advice, but if I were you I would take the following things into consideration when chosing:
- In which country do you want to live? The Netherlands and the USA are quite different. If you want to know anything about Eindhoven, let me know. I am from there :)
- How much do you get paid and are you able to live on that salary/stipend? In the Netherlands you are not considered as a student when you are a PhD student, you are considered as an employee. This translates into a relatively good salary.
- How long will the PhD be? 3 or 4 years?

Cheers

Thank you for your reply :)! I am still waiting for my reply from my supervisor, I hope she will be able to tell me more.

Thank you, Chickpea. Thank you for your input. I appreciate it :) The structure of the abstract has to be: Purpose, methodology, results and conclusion. Iam struggling about what to write at the conclusion part. Any thoughts?

Goodmorning to all of you,

Next year May, my supervisor will be president of a conference and she would like me to submit an abstract with the goal to present it at the conference. However, I just started my PhD 7 months ago and I therefore have no real results yet. I will have results by May though.
I have been trying to write an abstract, but its really difficult, since I dont know what my results will be.
Any advice/tips or tricks?

Thank you! Cheers

Hi there!

I am planning to apply for a PhD position and I have found a very interesting one. However, I will need funding. This is written in the ad: Fees and research costs are covered for home rated students.
Does this means that there is a stiped as well? or only tuition fees are covered?
Thank you!
