Doctoral study program

What to expect

In the first part of your studies, you will focus on advanced topics in PhD courses and in your own scientific research work. The study block is completed with a discussion that will further specify the path towards the final dissertation thesis. Before submitting their thesis, students have to take the state doctoral examination. One of the requirements of the doctoral studies is participation in international cooperation. Publication activity is very important during the whole course of the studies. Pedagogical activity in doctoral studies is voluntary.
