Find a dream PhD

Are you looking for an opportunity to get your PhD? I will share my experience with those interested. My name is Dr Rashid Gabdulhakov (or simply, Rashid), I obtained my PhD in the Netherlands and defended it with honours. I will talk about how to start looking for a position, how to apply, what to expect, what to look out for, etc. I will share my insights about the trajectory, teaching experience, publishing and, ultimately, defending a PhD in the Netherlands. Today I talk about some of the initial steps in finding a PhD trajectory.

1) apply for scholarships such as DAAD:

2) expand your academic network by reaching out to other scholars (this one is risky, use it mostly for gathering info)

3) apply for advertised positions. A good site for positions in the Netherlands is: https://www.academictransfer.com/en/
