Our doctoral programme is an in-person programme that carries out all of its activities in English. These activities aim at preparing students to become independent researchers pursuing a scientific career. The Academic Committee of the doctoral programme will assess the student's progress towards completing the doctoral thesis every year. This assessment is based on the annual academic activitie and the approval of your thesis supervisor.

Students have 2 opportunities to present their requirements annually:

  • 1st call: deadline to present your results: May 31st (The results of the annual evaluation -1st call- will be released each year by the end of September)
    • In the event of a negative assessment, the academic regulations give the student the opportunity to be reassessed on a 2nd call within six months. You must present all the missing required results before the end of January to be reassessed on the 2nd call.
  • 2nd call: deadline to present your results: January 31st. (The results of the annual evaluation -2nd call- will be released each year by the end of February) 

A second negative assessment will force the definitive withdrawal of the student from the PhD Programme in Biomedicine.
