PhD school 2025

Wageningen, 12-16 May 2025

Every year the DRSTP used to organize the THEP and SPTCM PhD school separately. Since 2024 these two schools are combined in one week. This PhD school will last five days, and will feature three plenary and four parallel lectures for all theoretical-physics students covering all theoretical physics in the Netherlands from the smallest to largest scale. Besides the lectures there will be plenty of time to socialize and network.

  • TARGET GROUP
