Purpose, structure and organisation

The PhD programme is in accordance with the PhD order no. 1039 of August 27, 2013 which came into force on September 1, 2013. The rules of the PhD School supplement its provisions.

The PhD programme is a research training programme at international level that qualifies PhD students to independently carry out research, development and teaching tasks in the private and public sectors that require a broad knowledge of research. The programme chiefly takes the form of performing research under supervision.
