    Information

    Aims, contents and method of the course

    A 15-min presentation given by every student every 1-1.5 years, followed by a feedback session with the faculty. The ability to give a good presentation and convey ideas succinctly is built up through a practice and constructive criticism. The benefits of these seminars are two-fold. One, to hone the presentation skills of the PhD students, and two to nourish an intellectually stimulating environment at the VBC. The Mattias Lauwers award will be presented on an annual basis to the PhD student who delivers the best presentation.
