PhD candidates pub crawls
The third pub crawl for PhD candidates took place on Wednesday, April 23. Following on from the successful pub crawls in the last two semesters, the third round now took place.
Visiting several pubs, we chatted about the doctorate, university life and everything else in a relaxed atmosphere. As in the last semester, we are delighted with the interest and participation of the PhD candidates and will continue to organize pub crawls for PhD candidates in the future! Until then, more get-togethers for PhD candidates are planned, so stay tuned!
The pub crawl was organized by the PhD student representatives of Trier University in cooperation with the WISO student council. Many thanks for the successful cooperation!
