(*) Per academic year

The PhD thesis is the start to learning as a researcher. As such, students need to know how to undertake exhaustive bibliographical research on a topic, formulate the research that is lacking, develop it in the laboratory, know how to rigorously interpret the data and, finally, draw conclusions from them. All this work must be reflected in publications in international journals with the widest reach possible. Research is directed by the thesis supervisor who corrects errors in interpretation, provides new ideas and discusses all experimental results.

Moreover, there are 150 hours of supplementary training. Some of this comes from cross-cutting subjects (English for Science, Bibliography, Bioethics, Industrial Innovation Processes, etc. covering a minimum 50 hours) offered by the EDUIB. Students also need to attend courses on topics linked to research (at least 45 hours) and conferences (10 hours) arranged by the CAD and the Department of Chemistry. Finally, they have the option of attending conferences and doing stays overseas (up to a maxium of 160 hours). At least 150 hours for the training period must be taken in accordance with the stated minimum hours. These supplementary courses are normally taken in the first two years of the PhD thesis preparation and are supervised by the tutor and the CAD.
