Doctoral College

The Doctoral College is the body of the Faculty of Medicine responsible for managing the files of the Faculty's doctoral students. It includes an Executive Board in charge of the day-to-day business. 

The College is the structure that establishes the link between the doctoral student, his/her thesis committee and the University administration. In particular, it is in charge of admission, equivalences, the valorization of acquired knowledge, the designation of the promoter, the thesis committee and the thesis jury. Each year, it decides on the progress of the work and on the doctoral training.

The Thesis Committee is responsible for the scientific follow-up and evaluation of the student throughout the duration of the PhD. The promoter is a member of the committee, along with other specialists in the field of research.
