For PhD students

Doctoral students of all years may apply for funding to support their activities under the programme “Fund for scientific development of the members of the Doctoral School”. The rules of the programme, including the yearly maximum funding amount and the list of eligible costs for a given academic year are defined in the Regulations.

As part of the implementation of the programme "Comprehensive internationalization of the Doctoral School at the Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Art and Design in Wrocław" (NAWA STER II) in the academic years 2022/2023 and 2023/2024 trips for scientific internships for the best doctoral students will be financed and scholarships for the best doctoral students from abroad will be granted. In September 2022 and 2023, commissions evaluating the achievements of PhD students of the Doctoral School are meeting to select beneficiaries of the project. The basis for the evaluation of the committees is going to be the application form and the documentation of the PhD student's achievements.

According to the Curriculum, in order to pass the following semesters, doctoral students are expected to submit to the Dean of the Doctoral School, by 15 February and 15 September each year, the following documents:
1) report concerning the progress in the implementation of the Individual Research Plan, including the work progress in the preparation of the doctoral dissertation,
2) supervisor’s opinion on the progress of the doctoral student's research work
3) information on didactic practice completed by the doctoral student, confirmed by the supervisor.

During the second semester of education at the Doctoral School, doctoral students prepare individual research plans with the academic guidance of their supervisors. These documents need to be approved by the Artistic Discipline Council of the Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Art and Design in Wrocław before the summer break after the first year of education (the second half of June).
Any changes to the individual research plan also need to be approved by the Artistic Discipline Council 

Implementation of the individual research plan is subject to mid-term evaluation, which takes place during the fourth semester of education by an evaluation committee appointed separately for each doctoral student.
The rules for conducting the mid-term evaluation in a given academic year are defined by a separate order of the Dean of the Doctoral School.

Qualitative descriptions of the evaluation carried out and the recommendations of the evaluation committees were passed on directly to the doctoral students.

Education at the Doctoral School ends with the submission of a doctoral dissertation. The rules of conducting the doctoral degree conferring procedure are determined by a separate resolution of the Senate of the Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Art and Design.
