    A beginner’s guide to Dutch academia

    This guide, an introduction to Dutch research and higher education, serves as a support document for researchers and instructors who are unfamiliar with the Dutch academic setting. It may also provide insight for those who have already been working in Dutch academia for a few years. It was written primarily with new ‘senior’ academic staff in mind, but will hopefully be useful for postdoctoral and doctoral researchers as well. The emphasis lies on professional challenges and opportunities.
