Method of choosing the subject of the thesis

The topic of the doctoral research, after an initial period of collaboration on more general subjects, is identified and discussed by the doctoral student with the supervisor.

Admission to the second year

The assessment for admission to the subsequent year is made on the basis of the annual report completed by the doctoral student and approved by the mentor, and the end-of-year audit. This audit, mandatory for all doctoral students, consists of a presentation lasting about 30 minutes in front of a committee composed of members of the Scientific Board.

Method of preparation of the thesis

Doctoral students, under the guidance of individual tutors, develop the thesis project, which involves at least 12 months of experimental work by elaborating the scientific hypothesis and work plan.

Admission to the third year

The assessment for admission to the subsequent year is made on the basis of the annual report completed by the doctoral student and approved by the mentor, and the end-of-year audit. This audit, mandatory for all doctoral students, consists of a presentation lasting about 30 minutes in front of a committee composed of members of the Scientific Board.
