VALO DOC LOUVAIN

Studying for a PhD involves wearing three different hats:

  • as a student, you will receive a state-of-the-art education;
  • as a researcher, your doctoral research will be your primary activity for several years;
  • and as a worker, your PhD studies will help you gain professional research experience, whatever the source of your funding may be.
