Registration and embedding
All PhD candidates within Erasmus School of Law are part of EGSL. Content-wise, they are embedded in the department. Every PhD candidate has either a hospitality agreement or an employment contract, regardless of whether they are an employed PhD candidate (an EGSL position or position based on other financial sources), a contract PhD candidate (with a scholarship or the candidate’s own funding) or an external PhD candidate. As a result, they receive an ERNA id (needed to access EUR systems like Hora Finita, Canvas etc.)
Onboarding
Information about onboarding, Hora Finita registration, training- and supervision plan, possibilities for teaching, financial matters and HR issues can be found on MyEUR and the onboarding page.
PhD support
Pursuing a PhD is a fulfilling and exciting task. Yet, it can also be challenging at times. The EGSL confidential counsellor can be contacted to discuss any concern or issue (in relation to their PhD trajectory) that PhD researchers might be facing and support them on the way forward. Additionally, the EGSL confidential counsellor can contact other professionals (e.g., specific professional training, the EUR PhD psychologist or the Ombudsman). All meetings with the EGSL confidential counsellor are strictly confidential, and no action will be taken without the PhD researcher’s permission. See our contact page for contact details of our confidential counsellor. On the university website, more information can be found about Health & safety, including a workplace Health and Safety information map.
Financial issues
Budgets within ESL and general regulations (reimbursement) can be found on this page.
Going abroad
There are several possibilities for PhD researchers to go abroad. The regulations and funding possibilities can be found on MyEUR.
HR information for employees
Employed PhD researchers can find more information about employment conditions, leave, salary, employment condition selection model, etc. on MyEUR.
