Doctoral Thesis Agreement

After the public presentation, a doctoral thesis agreement is made between the doctoral re-searcher, their supervisor(s), and the university (signed by the Director of Doctoral Studies on behalf of the Studienpräses). This agreement formalizes the commitments and responsibilities of each party. Further information, including the downloadable form, is available here:
