About me
I am the coordinator of the international PhD programme at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. Although I have a background in ecological science, I recruit on behalf of all professors (for all fields) who have shown an interest in supervising PhD candidates from Indonesia.
About Vrije Universiteit
Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (in short VU Amsterdam) has a clear ambition: to contribute to a better world through outstanding education and ground-breaking research. VU Amsterdam strives to be a university where personal development and commitment to society play a leading role.

This is how VU Amsterdam encourages multidisciplinary cooperation and aims to contribute to address the societal issues of today and the challenges of tomorrow.
