Introduction

  The curriculum is composed of lecture-style learning and of research activity in the group of your supervisor, namely in the research group in which you are accepted. All lectures shown are given in English and the subjects labelled as IPC minimum are highly recommended to be studied according to the IPC education policy. The total credits of the semestral seminars for two years is 18 and these credits are compulsory. The minimum requirement for the credits over two years is 16 credits from the lectures and weekly seminars and 18 credits from semestral seminars.

  In the PhD course program, students must select one subject in the research laboratory of your supervisor(s) (the name(s) is(are) written in the column labelled 'Teacher'). The PhD course requires students to take 4 credits from “Topical Seminar” and 9 credits from seminars or advanced seminars.
