The Doctoral Thesis should be a work of original research.

It should be supervised by a member of the Doctoral Programme Committee or of the External Faculty (Internal Supervisor).

The formal appointment of the internal supervisor comes together with the approval of the Thesis proposal by the Programme Committee.

A Co-supervisor could also be chosen either among the Faculty or in other Universities.

The task of both supervisors is to follow the candidate's research progress, to supervise the writing of the thesis, to counsel him/her in the choice of academic or professional career.
