Study abroad
Measures are required during the course of study that contribute towards internationalization. It is desirable for the individual PhD research fellow to study for a minimum period of 3 months at a foreign academic institution that has a relevant specialist environment, and for this period of study abroad to be included in the progress plan submitted with the application for admission to the study. PhD fellows who for any reason are unable to spend a semester abroad can meet the internationalization requirement by planning to participate in international PhD courses or research school, and/or to give presentations at International academic conferences with peer review. The candidate’s main advisor has a particular responsibility to introduce the candidate to relevant international academic environments.
