Starting a PhD with teaching duties in particle physics

[Kalimaa23]

It's official! As of 1st of October I'll be granted a part-time assistentship, which will enable me to start my PhD. A bunch of research groups have already expressed their interest, but my first choice will remain theoretical particle physics.

This means that I will also have to teach the exercise sessions for a couple of courses : Solid State and Radiation Physics, Electrodynamics and Special Relativity and finally Quantum Mechanics. Classes start next week. I've already had a few meeting with the professors involved and I must say that the atmosphere is really good. I like it already

Congrats man. I hope you get a good monthly pay. If you don't, try IWT, they pay very good and your lunch is FOR FREE

Maybe later, it's certainly an option. This year this wasn't possible because the deadline was to close to my graduation.
