| - | There are two sources for a subsidy of the costs for thesis printing:\\ | + | Leiden Observatory can provide a subsidy of maximum 900 Euro towards the costs of the printing of a PhD thesis, on the following conditions: |
| - | 1. The University Library offers a compensation of 500 Euro if you provide them with an electronic copy and license of your thesis. Please read the information on the following website carefully: | + | * The author presents an Observatory colloquium before the PhD defense. This informs everyone about the results of the thesis project, and has the added advantage that the graduate student can practice fielding questions in advance of the real ceremony. Contact Andrew Sellek who is organizing the PhD colloquium. |
| - | [[https://www.library.universiteitleiden.nl/researchers/submitting-your-phd-dissertation]] \\ | + | * The author offers copies of the thesis to local staff and 2 copies for the secretariat. Additionally a number of PhD theses are distributed to senior staff astronomers in other departments in The Netherlands. The author is expected to organize the mailing. Address labels and envelopes can be obtained from the secretariat: <secretaries@strw.leidenuniv.nl> |
| - | 2. Leiden Observatory can provide a subsidy of maximum 900 Euro towards the costs of the printing of a PhD thesis, on the following conditions: | + | * The electronic version of the PhD thesis (.pdf or .ps) is made available for the Observatory archive. Mail the digital copy to <Computerworkers@strw.leidenuniv.nl>. |
| - | * The author presents an Observatory colloquium before the PhD defense. This informs everyone about the results of the thesis project, and has the added advantage that the graduate student can practice fielding questions in advance of the real ceremony. Contact Ian Roberts: <iroberts@strw.leidenuniv.nl>. | + | * If the dissertation is defended in 2025, PhD candidates receive a financial compensation of €500,- from the UBL (Library) for the printing costs of the dissertation. This compensation is paid by the UBL after receiving two printed copies of the dissertation, a digital copy of the dissertation and the signed license for the non-exclusive publication of the dissertation in digital form (Appendix B). The compensation regulation expires on 1 January 2026 due to the imposed budget cuts in higher education. All individuals who sign the license agreement this year are still entitled to the compensation, even if they will not complete their doctorates until 2026. The author should apply for subsidy towards the thesis costs with the University Library (500 Euro) and if possible other funds before requesting a subsidy of the Observatory. The subsidy cannot exceed the total amount of printing costs minus other contributions (UBL). |
