Students meet PhDs and Postdocs at ULB

The SPP@ULB is a cycle of seminars in Mathematics delivered by PhDs and Postdocs
and addressed to other PhDs, but also to interested master students.

The aim of these seminars is twofold: on the one hand, they would give a glimpse
of academic activity after the degree that may intrigue young students;
on the other hand, they are intended to be a meeting occasion for PhDs and Postdocs
where to share ideas, collect feedbacks from the community and practice their presentation skills.

Concretely, seminars will be held once per month and they will be 45 minutes long,
followed by a quarter of hour dedicated to questions, comments or simply discussion between the participants.

Meetings are usually organized in the Salle des Professeurs, Campus de la Plaine – Bâtiment NO – Niveau 9.
