Annually, the Phd Academic Committee will assess all the documents delivered by the students in the tab "Research Plan" and "Activities Document" as well as all the reports of evaluation of the tutor/supervisor of the thesis.

The positive assessmnet is an essential requirement to carry on with the PhD programme. In case of negative assessment, duly motivated, the PhD student will be assessed within six months since the previous evaluation and she/he will have to submit a new research plan. In case of a second negative assessment, the student will be withdrawn.

The PhD student must pay the tuition fee every academic year, within the established due dates, independently of de mark obtained in the first assessment.
