In the enrolment procedure in the Doctoral Study Programme the Council of the Studies makes decision on the formal appointment of a mentor, the topic of the doctoral dissertation and the acceptance of an individual research plan.

The mentor is obliged to conscientiously, competently and ethically and scientifically responsibly take care of the doctoral student to whom he / she has been appointed as a mentor.

The mentor helps the doctoral student during the doctoral study and is obliged to guide and guide him in scientific work and application of scientific methods during the preparation of the doctoral dissertation, monitor the quality of his work, encourage him to publish papers and enable him to participate in scientific projects.

The mentor is obliged to check the authenticity of each written work of the doctoral student.

The mentor verifies the fulfillment of elective study obligations on the prescribed form, according to the criteria determined by the Doctoral Study Council (16 ECTS credits per each academic year).

The mentor is obliged to submit a report once a year on the work of the doctoral student and his / her progress during the doctoral study.

In addition to the mentor of the doctoral dissertation, the student can also be assigned a co-mentor who, together with the mentor, monitors the candidate in his doctoral research because of the inter- disiplinarity of the research or because the mentor is from abroad or from another collaborating in- stitution.
