| Jul 24, 2013 at 10:29 | comment | added | gerrit | I'm in Sweden, and as a PhD student, I am exempted from all laws regarding vacation. In practice we more or less follow the number of vacation days that a "proper" employee (teacher) the same age would have. | |

| Jul 24, 2013 at 7:07 | comment | added | Konrad Rudolph | For a bit of perspective (for comparison; or just to rub it in): I’m doing a PhD in Europe and I have 30 days of vacation a year. (That doesn’t mean I will actually take them all since I might be busy – but that’s what I’m entitled to). | |
