Confidential advisor

A confidential advisor can be consulted in cases for which you feel uncomfortable discussing with your supervisors or C3 committee.

For example:

  • Personal conditions which influence your performance (illness, care for family/friends, …)
  • Unhappy about your supervisor/C3 committee
  • Witness of scientific fraud
  • (Witness) of bullying/inappropriate behaviour

More information on who the confidential advisors are and how to contact them can be found here. Additionally, there is also a NWO confidential advisor available and many universities have their own help-system in place too.
