Course objectives
The aim of this subject is to help the student work on his/her project of the dissertation. This is done in three phases (together with subjects "Doctoral Thesis Project I" and "Doctoral Thesis Project II").

1) precisely formulated and relevant research topic,

This Project will be evaluated by a commission and the result of the evaluation will decide whether the student will be allowed to continue his/her research.
