Expectation vs Reality of PhD in Netherlands 🇳🇱 - Honest discussion with a Dutch PhD

Vlog 195 where I talk with Kevin, a Dutch final year PhD who is currently a Post Doc in TU Eindhoven and Open University, Netherlands about the advantages and disadvantages of doing a PhD in the Netherlands. We also discuss about the expectation before starting a PhD and the reality after ending a PhD! We also compare the PhD to an IT or S/W job and compare the PhD in different countries in Europe and USA!

    Hi, Sambit. I have completed B-Tech in Chemical Engineering from a NIT here in India this year only, and I would be joining an old IIT for Masters. I seriously want to pursue PhD in Europe as average time period is less there than in US. Could you please tell which countries in EU would be the best choices for me i.e Chemical Engineering? Your reply would be highly appreciated. Thank you.

    Hi bro.Doing nice work!! I have a few questions. I have 80% in my higher secondary school nd 7.5 overall in ielts. 1)Whats ur review about the applied universities here like HU for engineering(i have a option of automotive) in bachelors as other universities only accept 13 years education. 2)Can student cover their total expenses here during study as they are allowed to work either during study or during the vacations.( also someone told me we can work during both as their is no such issue and many students are doing so). 2)I have applied in italian universities as they accept 12 years education but my goal is to study in germany but for that b1 language diploma is needed and then studdiencolleg and at last admission to uni that is still not guaranteed.So,is it good to come to italy and after semester transfer to german uni(is it possible nd what are the chances) or apply directly for germany in the next summer intake after b1 course.Also,is italy itself a good option . 3)In your opinion,best option(country) for bachelor in english after 12 years education in europe(free education). 4)scope of civil engineering here? I know these are too many questions but i m in need of help as i m perplexed. Your answer would be highly appreciated!!! Keep it up!!
