Objectives
The aim of this course is to introduce TRAIL Research School and the PhD process at TRAIL, and to present the support given by TRAIL to PhD students.

Course description
To guide you in the TRAIL world, we have set up a special meeting for recently started TRAIL PhD students to give them more insight into the TRAIL Research School projects and particularly about the PhD process.

The meeting has numerous goals:
