Publications by former ECD MA and PhD students

The teaching programme has a long history of actively integrating PhD and MA students into its projects and staff is substantially involved in the national research school CERES.

The teaching programme takes pride in the fact that major contributions to its research programme are (co)authored by PhD and MA students as illustrated by this recent sample of conference papers, articles and book chapters.
