(Re)MA students
If you are a student enrolled in either a ReMA programme or in the research track of a 3-year MA programme at an institution participating in NOSTER, you can become a junior member of NOSTER. You need to ask the coordinator of your graduate school or research master’s programme to fill out the Junior Membership Registration Form. If you don’t know who that person is, please contact the NOSTER office (noster@ru.nl). Once you have been registered at NOSTER, you can participate in all modules free of charge, including accommodation and meals.
If you want to participate in a NOSTER module but are unable to become a member of NOSTER (e.g., because you are already registered with another research school in the Humanities), please go to the Guest Registration Form.
PhD candidates
If you are a PhD candidate (promovendus/-a) or an external PhD candidate (buitenpromovendus/-a) at an institution participating in NOSTER, you can become a junior member of NOSTER. You need to ask the coordinator of your graduate school or the director or coordinator of your research institute to fill out the Junior Membership Registration Form. If you don’t know who that person is, please contact the NOSTER office (noster@ru.nl). After registration, regular PhD candidates can participate in all modules free of charge, whereas external PhD candidates can take courses for max. 10 EC (after reaching this limit, you must pay €50 per EC plus catering and accommodation costs for separate events).
The category of PhD candidates includes (1) employed PhD candidates (werknemer-promovendus); (2) employees with a part-time exemption for doing doctoral research (promoverend medewerker); (3) externally funded PhD candidates; and (4) bursary PhD candidates.
