Supervisory team
The supervisory team normally consists of one principal supervisor and one or more co-supervisors.
Upon appointment to a PhD position, the faculty will indicate who your supervisor will be and provide you with all the information you need about your rights and duties as a PhD candidate. The main supervisor is the contact person between the PhD candidate and the administrative support staff for issues relating to study progress, and he or she has the main responsibility for supervision of the PhD candidate.
The composition of the supervisory team may be changed during the doctoral training if this is necessary in order to include specific support and competence in the research project. This is an assessment the supervisor(s) and the PhD candidate can make jointly or individually.
