PhD studies of OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY ENGINEERING last at least three years and grant, upon their completion, 180 ECTS credits (six semesters). Out of a total number of ECTS credits, the students gain 30 credits by taking required courses, 30 credits by taking elective courses, and 120 ECTS by supervised study research work, writing and defending a doctoral dissertation.
The student who completes the doctoral academic studies of the third degree shall acquire the scientific title Doctor of Technical Sciences - Occupational Safety Engineering.
A candidate wishing to be admitted to PhD studies is expected to have a bachelor's degree (240 ECTS) and a master's degree (60 ECTS) in the relevant or related scientific field.
The doctoral study programme in Occupational Safety Engineering enables students to acquire knowledge and skills, and to develop the abilities to understand and use contemporary knowledge and scientific findings in the field of occupational safety engineering.
