During the Doctoral Day, the Antwerp Doctoral School welcomes new PhD researchers, but also offers seminars that could be of interest for PhD researchers who've already started their PhD journey. All PhD researchers are expected to attend at least once over the course of their PhD.
For the autumn edition of the Doctoral Day of academic year 2024-2025, we would like to give as many PhD researchers as possible the opportunity to participate live. Therefore you will have the option to join on 22 October (online & on-campus) or 24 October 2024 (solely on-campus).
How to access Hof van Liere?
- Go to the main entrance of the Stadscampus at Prinsstraat 13, 2000 Antwerp.
- Walk through the gate and continue through the small square until you reach the roofed entrance of the first building.
- Enter this roofed hallway (don’t go in the main garden).
- Go through the door on your left and take the stairs to the second floor, where we will welcome you (room A. Dürer).
- See this map.
The venue is wheelchair-accessible. Send an email to DoctoralSchool@uantwerp.be in case you would like assistance.
Registrations are open
You can register via this electronic form.
Registrations will be closed on 15 October.
Programme
The programme differs slightly for both days - please choose one of the two events:
programme Tuesday 22 October (online & on-campus)
or
programme Thursday 24 October (on-campus)
The sessions will take place in different rooms at the second floor of Hof van Liere (Stadscampus). The programme includes parallel sessions in which you can choose a session of your interest. You can indicate the session of your choice on the registration form. When your registration is confirmed, you are expected to attend and it is not possible to switch to a different parallel session.
Don't forget to sign the attendance lists when you participate on-campus.
