To do:

Inform the PhD candidate on the following subjects:

  • The PhD candidate needs an Amsterdam UMC / VUmc personnel number for instance (1) to get an @amsterdamumc.nl email address, (2) to be able to work in the view environment, (3) to get access to the VU University Library and (4) to register for Doctoral School courses

  • The Human Resource department can help. HR contact details: Phone: +31(0)204446000Location: PK 7Z 190 (VUmc); Monday-Thursday
  • In case of any questions on ICT items, the PhD candidate can contact the ICT-service desk. Contact details:
    Phone: +31(0)204440777
    Location: ZH -1 A 14.3 (VUmc); Monday-Friday 8.00 - 12.00 & 12.45 - 16.00
  • Show the PhD candidate where to find information on the specific Research Institute to which the corresponding research project will be embedded
  • Invite the PhD candidate to register with the Amsterdam UMC Doctoral School
  • Draw attention to the PhD plan and discuss it together with the PhD candidate
  • Show him/her how to find the Amsterdam UMC Doctoral School. Send the link of this Doctoral School website to the PhD candidate and invite her/him to navigate through the various articles
    • 1.5 years after the start date, the external PhD candidate should follow the PhD Progress & Consultation procedure, together with the (co-) supervisors. However, if the external PhD candidate is following a trajectory at Sanquin or at , (s)he is probably already involved in a local PhD monitoring system. Since we do not want PhD candidates to be engaged in redundant activities, our PhD Progress & Consultation procedure is not applicable to them. They should merely send us a copy of their Progress Report and report of the meeting with the PI's, instead
