Meet the Team

We are a team of PhD students with the aim of maximising the value of PhD student’s and PhD graduates, by establishing a communication platform across all Doctoral programs, Departments and Research Units at Técnico.

If you feel like you have great ideas to improve the PhD experience in our school, please consider joining the team! Activities organized or promoted by the Hub are for all PhD students @ Técnico, whether they belong to the organizing team or not.
