Overview
Program description:
The Doctoral School of Military Engineering focuses on fields of research that are specifically related to the military application of engineering. This includes the training and preparation for scientific research in various related fields ranging from basic and applied researches and development, through technology and technology-transfer to technological innovation. In the first four semesters, courses are taken in the field of military engineering sciences for a specified amount of credit points, meanwhile the doctorate student performs research activities, for which he receives credit points as well. At the end of the fourth semester, the student takes a complex exam, where his theoretic knowledge is assessed, and his research progress is presented. After a successful exam, the doctorate student proceeds with his research for another four semesters, with a value of 120 credit points. When enough credit points are collected by the end of the eighth semester, he receives a certificate of completion. The doctoral thesis must be submitted within a year. PhD students must obtain at least 240 credit points and B2 level in two foreign languages. Upon successful completion of the program, students are awarded a PhD degree in Military Engineering.
