Progress reports

PhD candidates and supervisors must report progress during the PhD degree. This is to ensure that our PhD candidates receive necessary support and to aid a smooth implementation of their PhD project.

The progress reporting consists of:

  • One mandatory meeting in the 3rd semester (Third semester follow-up)
  • Annual reports submitted electronically
  • Some units also conduct follow-up meetings in the 5th and 7th semester

The third semester follow-up

All PhD candidates are invited to a meeting between 12 and 15 months after the PhD candidate's appointment date. This third semester follow-up meeting is mandatory, and the purpose is to follow up the candidate's progress until now.
