Hi guys,
I'm not in a PhD, but doing a clinical postgraduate study for 4 years, and really have had enough of it. I have a contract with a university, and they have registered me as a postgraduate student and pay me a stipend, not a salary. Another company is paying the university for my time and basically I work for them.
I am seriously considering to quit, and am wondering if I would have a notification period at all? I'm thinking I'm registered as a (postgraduate) student, and surely a student doesn't need to stick around for much longer if the education if not for them? Does anyone know how this would legally work?
I understand of course I would not have a right on my stipend for the period I haven't worked..
Thanks a lot!
