Academic

We aim to strengthen the courses on offer at the local level. Currently, following courses is significantly more time consuming for PhDs and postdocs outside of Leuven due to time spent travelling back and forth. Thus, we aim to develop more course opportunities locally, and potentially create new concepts involving local speakers (alumni, industry representative, etc.). ‘Interdisciplinary’ should be the keyword, as we believe that bringing the researchers from different backgrounds and faculties together would be the major gain of local courses. We do acknowledge the importance of our connection with Leuven and are aware that the majority of the courses will remain to be organized there only. Thus, another objective of the DWG is to emphasize the importance of compressing courses in Leuven in time by organizing multiple sessions at the same day in order to limit the amount of trips to Leuven.
