The Doctoral Program does not require any additional course during its research phase. For students accessing with a different master from that of Molecular Nanoscience and Nanotechnology the Joint Academic Committee may consider taking certain masters courses as complement for their training. The number of credits to be taken in this case will never exceed 60 credits.

Master in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology Molecular students must take the remaining 60 credits to complete the degree.

During the investigation phase the student will focus on carrying out the research work for his PhD thesis. The director of this thesis will be teaching and research staff with at least six recognized years of research experience or equivalent.
