Academic Committee and Doctoral Program Staff

The Academic Committee is the body associated with the doctoral program of the Network Engineering Department responsible for defining, coordinating, and updating it, ensuring the quality of the related activities, and implementing relevant measures for its continuous improvement. It is also responsible for overseeing the progress of research and training, as well as authorising the thesis submission for each doctoral candidate in the PhD program.

Among the relevant tasks: Admission of new students, assign tutors, authorise directors (or changes) and co-directors, annual assessment of students, studies extensions, Research Plan and PhD Thesis deposit review and authorisation, authorisation of board members composition, to stimulate transversal activities in the program, and the follow-up of the program quality.
