Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is the structured preparation of a dissertation project plan so that it is feasible in the given period of doctoral studies and meets the requirements in terms of professional (methodological) and content according to the criteria of the DSP programme. The course includes individual or group consultations between the student and the supervisor. The consultations take place at regular predefined intervals and the supervisor takes the role of a mentor, reflecting the student's autonomy in the preparation of the specific dissertation project. The output of the student's activity is a dissertation project proposal, which the student presents and defends. Successful completion of this course (i.e. successful defence of the dissertation project plan) is a condition for successful completion of the first year of study and continuation of further studies.
