Admission to the process
The Academic Committee shall decide whether to accept the thesis for consideration within fifteen academic days of the submission of the application (or from the date on which any deficiencies have been rectified, where applicable), taking into account the reports from the supervisors and the contributions to knowledge in the field of study in which the thesis has been carried out, as well as the quality of its writing and presentation.
The administrative office of the relevant PhD programme must verify that the relevant documentation has been provided and that the requirements are met, paying particular attention to theses that qualify for any of the special categories set out in the regulations. If the application does not meet the applicable requirements under current regulations, the applicant will be required, within ten academic days, to rectify the deficiency or submit the necessary documents, with the understanding that, should they fail to do so, their application will be deemed withdrawn and they will have to restart the procedure.
In the event of a rejection, the decision shall be justified and communicated to the doctoral student and the supervisor. The doctoral student may lodge an appeal with the EDUZ Quality Assurance Committee for Doctoral Studies via the electronic register within ten working days. The Committee shall issue a report on the matter within ten working days of the appeal being lodged, which it shall forward, together with the arguments put forward, to the Director of the EDUZ.
