The PhD degree certifies a high level of expertise in a particular research field, the contribution of original results to that field, and the candidate’s ability to conduct independent research.<\/p>\n

1. Objective of the Training<\/h3>\n

The aim of the individual preparation route is to support the acquisition of the knowledge and fundamental research skills necessary for earning a doctoral degree, and to contribute to the development of future academic researchers.<\/p>\n

2. Form of Training<\/h3>\n

The required level of knowledge for earning a doctoral degree can be achieved through individual preparation<\/strong>, completing the research and dissertation phases within four semesters<\/strong>.
Applicants for individual preparation are expected to have significant teaching or research experience and a documented record of academic achievements.<\/p>\n
