  • Admittance of Graduate StudentsAllmn behrighet (basic requirement): 120p Srskild behrighet (specific requirement):80p courses relevant for Computer Systems I.e. kandidatexamen (B.Sc.) or magisterexamen (M.Sc.) in Computer Engineering or Science is sufficient Alternatively: Corresponding qualifications

  • Subject areas (Forskarutbildningsmne)Graduate education (and research) is organised in subject arease.g., Computer Engineering; Computer ScienceFormal rights granted by the government (University or Science Area)MdH has Science Area Engineering (Medicine; Science; Hum/Soc..) For each subject area: one (or more) chair (mnesfretrdare)Prof responsible for subject areaExaminer

  • Admittance and supervisionThe faculty board has formal responsibility

    The faculty board decides who can be supervisormain supervisor - should be qualified researcher (docent) assistant supervisorPhDoften the actual supervisor

  • Individual study planRequired for admittance submitted together with undergrad exam and applicationRough plan from admittance to dissertationCourses (name, time, points)Thesis (titel and time)Supervisors (type, title, and name)Is a plan!Revised annually

  • Responsibilities: Grad Student - Supervisor(there is no general rule)SupervisorIntro to research areaContacts and refsproblem formul.financingco-authorStudentCourseworkStudy od research areaproblem formul.experiments/prototypesco-authorGoal: The student should become more competent than the supervisor in the specific area of study
