A PhD student is a paid employee for a maximum of 5 years, with excellent pay and benefits. The majority of your working time is devoted to your own research studies. A PhD student is also expected to develop own ideas and communicate scientific results orally as well as in written form. In addition, the position will normally include 20% departmental work, mostly teaching duties. 

The employment is limited to a maximum of five years.
