Information for course participants

Six weeks before start of a course an announcement with further information and the possibility to register will be sent to all CTG members and interested colleagues. Registered persons will receive a confirmation two weeks before the start of the course. After the course, the participants are requested to fill in an evaluation form. Successful participation will be confirmed by a certificate. All external course participants should complete the application form which is available on request and on our website and send this at least two weeks before the starting date of the course.

For PhD students of CTG and related MSc students, the courses are free of charge. For PhD and MSc students from other groups, we charge €50,- per GS point (1 point = 8hr work load) + €50,- administration costs. For course participants from institutes or firms we charge a fee of €1000,-. Discounts can be discussed for external course participants who are affiliated to CTG.

Graduate School and/or CTG Certificate

Since 1 January 2012, each new PhD candidate of Delft University of Technology automatically becomes a member of the TU Delft Graduate School. The GS' Doctoral Education programme consists of three categories: 1. Discipline-related skills; 2. Research skills; 3. Transferable skills. All CTG courses can be added as a discipline related course. The minimum number of GS credits for discipline-related courses you should receive is 15. We strongly advise you to take most courses within the first two years of your PhD study, thus benefitting most of it.

PhD students of TU Delft who are enrolled in the GS will obtain a Doctoral Education certificate stating all courses they followed. PhD students who are not enrolled in the GS (because they started before 2012 or because they are an external candidate) may take GS courses as well.

After finalizing a course, all participants receive a CTG certificate. If you are a member of the GS, you can add this to your GS account.

Location

If not otherwise stated, all courses are scheduled at the Department of Geoscience & Engineering in Delft. A route description can be obtained from our website.
