After admission - The doctoral programme

The PhD... Quite a process, in a few words!

Throughout your PhD, you will be supported and supervised by a team that will help you complete your project, both administratively and scientifically.
You will also have certain obligations and steps to follow.

Here, on the Enrolment Service pages, you will find all the information you need about the first steps (activating your UCLouvain account, requesting your access card, virtual office, obtaining a certificate of enrolment, etc.).
Intranet access, after identification!

Everything you need to know - Keep in mind:

• The mandatory steps
• Throughout the entire doctoral programme 
• The roles of the Doctoral commission 
• The doctoral training programme:
  • Process
  • What is it? Where can I find it?
• Annual meetings & Mid-term evaluation
• Infos Printing / Format / Publication (Canevas / Vademecum IPSY)

PhD students are invited to submit their "Annual Report" once a year to the Doctoral commission, following each annual meeting with the Supervisory panel.

This report must be accompanied by the "Credit validation request" form, which can be found online, along with all attestations.
One activity = One attestation = One numbered appendix.

The final stages of the doctoral programme

• The composition of the thesis jury 
• Thesis budget for IPSY PhD student 
• Thesis defences process 
  • First method : Two steps defences 
  • Second method : Defences in the same time-frame

As you will read above, in "The roles of the Doctoral commission", please remember that the commission remains at your disposal throughout your doctoral studies!

Good work everyone!
