PhD Epidemiology
Within Utrecht University all PhD students enter a PhD programme, which is part of one of the 6 Graduate Schools of Utrecht University. After finishing the PhD, the PhD student will receive a certificate of the Graduate School.
The PhD programme Epidemiology is organised within the Graduate School of Life Sciences and is aimed at optimal preparation of PhD fellows to become independent researchers, research consultants, or continue their career at an academic level in (non)governmental institutions or the pharmaceutical industry.
The core of the educational programme consists of formal epidemiological training, with research methodology as its core knowledge area, offered by the participating research groups of the Utrecht University focus area Epidemiology. Sharing and distribution of knowledge takes a central part in the aims of this focus area. Collaborative educational activities are primarily aimed at providing PhD fellows with the required knowledge base and skills to conduct their current research and design future research. Simultaneously these interfaculty educational activities aid in the development of a shared view on concepts and terminology, and stimulate research collaboration. Next to training in research methodology the PhD programme is aimed at the development of more generic skills like teaching and communication. By selection of elective courses, the programme allows PhD fellows to tailor their educational programme to their individual needs and interests.
The PhD programme epidemiology equals the registration demands from the Dutch Epidemiology Society for Epidemiologist B.
You can find more information for PhD students at the UMCUtrecht website.
