As the ACTA PhD Council, we plan social activities such as borrels, nights out and our annual Amsterdam Light Festival boat trip. Furthermore, we also organise career-oriented, scientific, and networking events to improve the PhD Training Programme, including discussion panels with academics and industry professionals, thesis printing workshops, conference poster workshops and more.
The ACTA PhD Council meets with the Dean, Research Institute and Graduate School of Dentistry representatives on bimonthly basis. During these meetings we discuss issues that relate to the wellbeing and project progress of PhD candidates in the faculty. Additionally, members of the council also participate in central councils of UvA and VU.
