The Pharmaceutical Doctoral Student Council
The Pharmaceutical Doctoral Student Council (FDR) is the Pharmaceutical Student Union's doctoral student council which represents the doctoral students at the Faculty of Pharmacy in various committees and boards. Our primary focus is to ensure that all doctoral students can complete their studies in a good working environment and under good employment conditions.
The Pharmaceutical Doctoral Student Council handles issues concerning research and postgraduate education and works for a secure education from admission to dissertation. We also work to create cohesion between doctoral students from the three institutions by inviting them to regular meetings, career and social events.
The Pharmaceutical Doctoral Student Council often collaborate with the Uppsala University Doctoral Board and the Doctoral Council of Faculty of Medicine, where we stand together to ensure that the doctoral students' voices are heard.
