Enrolment in doctoral academic supervision
Continuation registration instructionsNew enrolments instructions |
Once admitted to the PhD programme, students who wish to do so may request a mentor who will guide them through the relevant administrative and academic processes at the university and other procedures to facilitate their adaptation to the city and, in general, to the PhD. They will also be able to participate in the activities organised by the Iberus Connect ambassadors (contact: iberusconnect@campusiberus.es, embajadoct.uz@gmail.com).
Deadlines
Enrolment in doctoral academic supervision must be formalised annually within the deadlines established in the academic calendar, during all the years of doctoral training and until the thesis is pre-deposited, even in situations of temporary leave of absence (the financial conditions in these cases are detailed here). Failure to do so will be considered a reason for dropping out of the doctoral programme.
In the case of new doctoral students in the academic year 2023-2024 and subsequent years, the date of enrolment constitutes the starting date of the doctoral studies, for the purposes of calculating the deadline for the deposit of the thesis .
The Doctoral Letter must be submitted through the Solicit@ platform as soon as possible after enrolment and, in any case, no later than three months after the thesis supervisor has been assigned..
Form of presentation
In ordinary term, it will be formalised by means of self-enrolment through the virtual secretary's office of the University of Zaragoza. In order to do so, it is essential to have previously obtained the NIP and the administrative password.
During the extraordinary period, the completed and signed form Enrolment in academic supervision for doctoral studies must be submitted to the School for Doctoral Studies via the electronic registry.
Tuition fees
The public prices corresponding to the amount of tuition fees for academic supervision, secretarial fees, school insurance and the opening of a student' s file are established annually by the Government of Aragon.
Doctoral students will be able to benefit from the discounts on tuition fees established by the University of Zaragoza for its students.
Those who have obtained an Honours Degree in studies prior to the PhD (only for studies of the University of Zaragoza) must register as indicated, choosing TPV as the payment method and send an email to docto@unizar.es informing of this circumstance and communicating the chosen payment method, in the event of not maintaining payment by TPV. Once the checks have been carried out, the registration will be regularised and a copy of the registration will be sent.
The University of Zaragoza, with funding from the Government of Aragon, announces these grants annually, with the aim of promoting the public service of higher education, providing an effective framework of equality in the access and academic progression of University students in their university studies through a reduction in the cost of the same.
