  • 1.  PhD Opportunities Thread: Connecting Students with Opportunities

    Posted 14-02-2025 18:25

    Dear Members,

    We've noticed a growing number of students reaching out to inquire about where they can find information on PhD positions, potential supervisors, and related opportunities. To streamline this process and keep everything in one place, we've created a dedicated thread where members can easily share and seek PhD positions.

    If you're offering a PhD position or know of any opportunities, feel free to advertise them here. Likewise, if you're currently looking for a position, use this thread to connect with potential supervisors or institutions.

    A few friendly reminders:

    • Please make sure to update the thread if a position has been filled or is no longer available.
    • If you're no longer seeking opportunities, kindly remove your post to keep things current for everyone.

    This space is designed to support our community in connecting, sharing, and finding opportunities to grow. We look forward to seeing this thread help many members advance their academic careers.

    Best wishes,
    Hannah
