Dear KTH PhD Students,
We understand that the PhD journey is tough and if you are here on this page, there is a chance that you are looking for some support. THS is currently in the hiring process to recruit a new Ombudsman for the doctoral students but the process does take a while.
In the meantime, we encourage you to reach out to us, the PhD Chapter Board, in regards to any challenges that you would like to get some consultation on. We have sworn for your anonymity and any discussions further will be anonymized, even during our potential internal discussions/consultations.
To make this process easier and that you could use any of our help, feel free to send us an email. We will respond to you as soon as possible, as we are also going through the same journey as you.
