LACDR is a very international institute. We have a large network of scientists and institutions all over the world with whom we collaborate in multi-year research programs. Almost half of our PhD candidates and postdocs are coming from abroad.

It is possible to receive a PhD position with a scholarship from abroad. Among others, there are Chinese and Indonesian PhD candidates who have selected LACDR as their institute of choice. They play a very important role in our research program and also participate in the supervision of our Masters students.
